    The Birth of Venus

    Melano SOKHADZE 2016 Switzerland Fiction color 24min English, French, Geo DCP
    After the death of her younger daughter, Brigid is overwhelmed by memories and subconscious visions. They inspire a journey through her past and present, redefining her position as a woman and mother in a patriarchal society where both women and men suffer equally. A poetic and dreamlike tale of redemption through a female gaze.
