The Land of Abandonment I.: The Girl With a Whip

The Land of Abandonment I.: The Girl With a Whip 2024 Directed by Eliška Lubojatzká Krajina opuštění I.: Dívka s bičem

Voice, face, body and whip. In a tense monologue, a girl looks back at the long shadow cast by the act of rape, which has materialized in the surprising form of an all-too-vivid whip. Slowly receding, the camera zooms out to accompany the moment when she manages to unclench her fist, rid herself of the powerful instrument and speak in her own voice.
