The Stranger Inside Her: Short Movie Premiere (EN)
5. August 2023 | 20:00 – 6. August 2023 | 0:00
Dear friends, colleagues & cinephiles,
We warmly invite you to join us for the premiere screening of the short movie “The Stranger Inside Her” by Christina Themeli, produced by Underpaid Mantis. It will be presented at Haus der Statistik (OTTO) on Saturday, the 5th of August, at 20:00.
Movie Synopsis:
“The Stranger Inside Her” is a short movie inspired by Italian giallo movies starring an anonymous woman dealing with sexual assault and the consequences it has on her mental health. The movie reflects on the traumatic experience of sexual assault from a (cis white) woman’s perspective through her inner monologue, expressing her emotional distress covering the phases of before, during, and after the assault. The offender remains faceless and anonymous; a mere representation of the assault itself. The focus lies on the alienation the woman experiences within herself and her surroundings. Her fragmented and blurry identity is depicted through various versions of herself set in enigmatic locations, where her mind plays games with her and causes her to doubt what is real and what is not. As she settles into a new reality, the stranger inside herself has become her.
