A WOMANS PLACE, 2003. Documentary, 9 min.

Director Ewa Cederstam.

The director has intervieved five women about their memories of rape, searched police records for rape scenes and filmed these settings and the women´s own stories. What happens to the memory of a rape and what happens to the site where it happened?

”It was vital to me that the crime scenes should be deserted. Travelling around, documenting the sites of rapes, was an unpleasant experience, and along with the memories of interviewed women it was a scary reminder about the victims of violence”.
