After a rape, trauma can scramble and fry the senses. Often, the brain plunges material that is too disturbing and painful to remember into darkness in order to survive the full terror and violence of sexual assault But the body remembers. A drifting collection of sounds and lingering questions from a beach trip become a sequence of clips, a loop, a story that glosses over crags and chasms until the nervous system is ready to process the material. But first, day becomes night. Fascinated by the artistic and philosophical implications of creating ‘overexposed’ images, Moscoso points her camera directly into the sun in this unequivocal, white-hot debut film. An edit emerges through fire. (JA)
