IN PREPARATION

READ MY BREASTS is a documentary film about the Ukrainian activist Inna Shevshenko, the member of the prominent feminist group FEMEN. Her political actions changed our world, but her struggle in the nudity reaped contradictions. Even torture. So the film is also one about disappointment and trauma. Inna has learned too much about our harsh world. But Inna does not give up: A film about modern feminism.

READ MY BREASTS is a film built in visual layers, in which Inna is put back into old press shots. We work with large print photographs of actions of FEMEN, where we retouched Inna out. She appears in the same place in the film, but she is real and can move in front of the photograph. She is standing in her own past, so to speak. This creates a strange alienation effect.

The film is an embodiment of the visual political art of FEMEN and shows new pop - feminism.

A SCREENPLAY BY ANJA SALOMONOWITZ
PUBLISHED BY CZERNIN VERLAG 
MORE INFORMATION HERE



This book is a screenplay. The movie is set in a retirement home. The old people's home is like a forest. With a clearing where two people sleep together, for example. The old people's home is the underground of the psyche. It's not a real old people's home, it's the state that the texts fall on.
 
All the dialogs in this script are original quotes from interviews with people who responded to an appeal and anonymously told their stories and experiences with dating platforms. The texts have been transcribed word for word. Nothing has been invented and nothing has been embellished. 
 
This text was written in 2017.

MY PLACE OR YOURS

:
:
:
Their bodies are old and frail, but the residents of the old people's home have a young spirit dreaming of love – and sex. The elderly lend their voices to young dating platform users; the stories and experiences are real. Told in daily situations, these words have even more power and tell the deep truth that you are never too old to be human with all your senses.

The results are absurd, funny and also melancholy stories of ancient people musing about modern young Tinder dates. They talk about fast sex or slow world-weariness. Yet we see them in their everyday activities, we watch them eating, sleeping or doing gymnastics, while they fall in love for real, escape from the residence or cheat on their wives. Whatever you do in a retirement home.

The screenplay written by Anja Salomonowitz will be published as a book by Czernin Verlag.
