S9.E14 ∙ Private Passions

We wanted to make a film about a teenage mother. We met Joana in a casting that took place in Setubal, in the Bela Vista neighborhood. She appeared to us as a porcelain doll, small, fragile, pale, with a little hair bow. Little by little, she crumbled apart, revealing a charming complexity. We were conquered by the duality of strength and fragility, freedom and incarceration, joy and sorrow. The intimacy and complicity we were able to establish with her made this film possible. In Cat's Cradle, we share her with everyone else.

A documentary film about a group of homeless kids, who have survived their drug addicted childhood, grew up and start to live an adult life.

The film's action happens in the Donbas region of Ukraine in the present day. The protagonist is the Slovak Mira, who leaves his life in England behind to go to the Luhansk People's Republic. He sees his mission in the restoration of symbols of the Soviet empire: the monuments to Lenin, to miners, to workers.

Yael and Melissa met 7 year ago, while working as strippers in Japan. Yael an, Israeli photographer, filmed their blooming friendship. During the filming Melissa reviled the story of her abusive father, the story of her 3 abounded kids, and mostly her feeling of being lost in the world. In 2009 after meeting the film director Limor Pinhasov, they decided to travel to the USA and see how Melissa is doing today. Yael became a respected artist she married and seems to be well. In the USA we found Mellissa struggling one day at the time. The heart of this film is the powerful reunion of two courageous, sincere women.
