Synopsis
For a while, I doubted about what I felt, but the psychiatrist said I din't need any medicine. So, I decided to make a movie from it. I invited my mother and a great actress to participate. It was a ritual of turning into film what I didn't want to be just real life, or anymore. Mixing memory and invention, women and the cinema.
