Global sales handled by the French agency Andana Films, co-produced by Clin d’œil Films and Dérives.

Motivation: “For its profound cinematic transformation of testimony into visual memory, and for its inventive use of space, scale, and reflection to embody the invisible scars of imprisonment, The film creates a deeply human and formally accomplished act of witness. With remarkable restraint, emotional precision, and a confident cinematic language, it allows trauma to resonate through image rather than spectacle, giving voice to memory with dignity, clarity, and lasting emotional power”.
