Ruptures (Kopular)
Synopsis
Four passengers on a journey in a black Mercedes are unaware of their significance as state archetypes: a Police Commissioner, a Politician and a Right-wing Assassin. The fourth passenger is Yenge, the only female traveller, a woman silenced by the genre conventions of her role in the film. After a rupture Yenge’s noir voiceover begins to interrupt the male characters’ forced bravado as they are haunted by the Resistant Dead – the residual movements created from stories of people refusing to be forgotten. The film’s destination, The Gossip, addresses tales of female emancipation and empowerment, where a group of female activists transcend time, geographical borders and linguistic barriers to gather in a neutral nether-realm of conversation and mutual support.
