Dream
“A Cypriot grandmother’s reflections on a life of hardship and beauty unveil the poignant contrasts of loneliness, nostalgia, and the female experience within a world that both shaped and confined her.”
2022•25m•Released
Documentary
A short documentary examining the consequence of time within the fragility of memory, exposing a sense of self, trapped within materiality and fantasy. We observe Chrystalla in her safe place, her home, reflecting on her childhood, her successful beauty business in 70s Cyprus and her deeply troubled marriage. Loneliness, abandonment and regret are prevailing themes within cycles of reflection, jest and contradiction.
