Storyline & Synopsis

In our over-technologised age, how can we capture our identity and our essential humanity to make clear to each other who we are? With a moving camera reminiscent of nostalgic home videos, Josiane Pozi answers this question by filming herself and her family. Everyday reality in a digital world is captured in an abstract and fragmentary way. The banal is elevated into something weighty and valuable, with intimate living room moments as a response to the stereotypical representations of the black female body in traditional imagery. Pozi paints a sometimes uncomfortable and rather unflattering picture of herself and her mother, zooming in on family relationships, annoyances, fun and caring for each other.
