IFFF packt aus: Darüber spricht man nicht

In the organizer's words:

You don't talk about it (De eso non se habla)
María Luisa Bemberg
AR / IT 1993, 35mm, feature film, 102'

"Dedicated to all people who have the courage to be different in order to be themselves", say the opening credits of #De eso no se habla# by Marí Luisa Bemberg. The film tells the story of a woman of small stature whose visible difference is not talked about in her small town. Under the taboo imposed by her mother, the adolescent is assimilated into society until she finally breaks out and reveals her otherness, rising above all conventions of speech and silence. In this film, Alejandra Podestá shows the courage to be herself and to act wonderfully.
