COMMENTS
"A small film about a true story that becomes testimony and a symbol of pain, but also of the possibility of healing and redemption. Joy's present and past flow between daily life and memory, trauma, travel, hiding, mental illness. A strong portrait that shakes and makes you think ", Motivation Spiraglio Filmfetival 2021.
