Details of textiles, hands handling on the stove. Reflections of the outside world. Time manifests itself in light and shadow. With an outstanding camera, the film weaves together the stories of three women. They all share the memory of traumatic experiences in their patriarchal environment marked by violence. Isolated, they spend their lives in their apartments, which function as shelters. In careful detailed shots, as fragmentary as the narratives themselves, the stories reveal themselves. Claiming a recognition of pure existence after survival is the first task. (Sita Scherer)
