Comme une spirale
Lamia Chraibi
Like a Spiral is a dialogue between Beirut and five women, migrant domestic workers, under the Kafala system. Expressing their belonging to a society in collapse, the women’s voices rise through the film’s grainy images to denounce their stolen freedom with an inalienable thirst to exist. Their memories dance in the rhythm of oppression. Caught within life’s spiral, they lift themselves up to not sink into oblivion.

Through an intimate, direct cinema approach, Circo immerses us in the lives of residents of Brazil’s favelas as they seek to shape their own futures.

OK

My body is mine. In my swimsuit, I revisit my childhood memories and ignore the prejudices. I dive. In this feminist essay on fatphobia, filming my body and accepting it is taking a stand. Against the backdrop of dirty pools, I say “OK” to those who would like to change me.
