Verena Kuri: 'What we wanted above all is to work with this haunting absence of this disappeared woman' Photo: Courtesy of Venice Biennale College Argentinian Verena Kuri and Canadian Sofía Brockenshire’s debut feature One Sister (Una Hermana) was one of four selected for this year’s Biennale College programme at Venice Film Festival, which shepherds low-budget films from development to distribution in the space of a year. The drama focuses on the impact that the disappearance of a woman has on her family and, in particular, on her sister (Sofia Palomino), who is seen battling bureaucracy and wandering the fringes of their rural town in a bid to find answers. We caught up with the fimmakers at Venice to talk about the film and its echoes in the present day through the Ni Una Menos (Not One More) protests against femicide and gender violence in Argentina.
