Pelvic Chain

Marie-Anna Šulc / Czech Republic / 2023 / World Premiere / 7 min.

synopsis

A dream of the anarchy of nerves, muscles and tissues, gripped by the shell of institutions and prejudices, but also by the remedies used by contemporary medicine, materializes in a demonstration of the possibilities of controlling the robust machine of a motorcycle. The diary account of the vicissitudes of recovery and the struggle to reconnect with one's own body is also a reflection on the ability to accept and share pain.

“The homophobic shit of one of the paramedics is echoing throughout the ICU…”
