In Congolese culture, 生为女人是一种罪恶,只会因耳聋或其他残疾而加剧. 在他们的一生中, 妇女面临持续的压迫和虐待,她们别无选择,只能忍受. 内心的我 is a short human rights documentary, 安东尼奥·斯帕诺导演, 探索生活和故事 4 deaf women living in the Republic of Congo.
This is an existence most people can’t relate to. Spanò gives these women the platform they deserve, in the hopes of people simply listening. The unfortunate lives of these women is most aptly put when one woman, Stuka, describes the major events in her life as the times she has died. She has died twice. Her stories suggest that she was robbed of everything human and treated as worthless. 因此,, Stuka feels her life can only be described as death.
可悲的是, Stuka’s story is not unique from the other women’s. They all tell stories riddled with sadness, isolation, and abuse. Time and time again they are told they are worthless and everything they do is wrong. Stuka’s father was upset when he thought she looked like a prostitute as if nothing could be worse. One of the other women was specifically asked to be a prostitute by her family in order to bring in more money.
Spanò’s intermingling of montage footage with the women’s interviews is a beautiful balance that forms a stunning documentary. It’s admirable the way he allowed the women to tell their own stories, rather than tell them through his own lens. This is not only a story of deafness, but a story of 4 deaf women living in a society that does not value them.
我会给 内心的我 4.5/5 星星.
