    being victim

    The first virtue of this short film can be defined the performance, more than beautiful, of young Rasaq Kukoyi. The second - the interogation about what makes us victims . Not the last - the high realism of story, the negation, the womb and the humiliation, recreated by flashes of memories , being admirable used.

    A film about bulying from a wise perspective. Indeed, the victim, looking for save apparences after a bad treatment from some guys.

    But the basic good point is the fair balance between shame, guilt and acceptance of consequences of attack. This makes Held special. Because , for victim, the things are for long time ambiguous and the wake up always brutal and shamefull and the need of help from closed other just urgent.

    In same measure, inspired art of suggestion, working in splendid way.
