Where Shadows Are Born
After a violent childbirth and a recent separation, Violeta, the film’s director and a photographer, goes through a moment of rupture in her experience of motherhood. Turning her gaze toward her own mother leads her to question how she herself was mothered and what ways of being a woman and a mother were passed on to her. Through encounters with different forms of motherhood; among them María, a sculptor and trans mother, another way of seeing herself and of thinking about her own experience opens up for Violeta.
