Afterwards

dir. Romane Garant Chartrand/Canada//25 min.

Inside a shelter, participants in a talking circle share their experiences of intimate partner violence as a way to regain their dignity and strength to act. Powerfully empathetic, “Afterwards” creates a space of sisterhood and solidarity—a chorus of voices breaking down the walls of silence
