Tania Slobodianik: Never Again

Never Again is a private diary consisting of records of telephone conversations and videos taken between 2014 and 2022 between my mother and me, feelings, sensations and memories, a lost reality that will no longer be the same.  The materials of the film were intended exclusively for home use, but looking back, I understand that events cannot stand apart from each other, combining with others, they form a context and give the past .  Now there is no way to find support and I try to do this by reviewing the video diary. In these conversations with my mother, our cottage, as it was, in this river, flowers, birds, I create my support and become stronger.
