(Material sensible)
Ana de Quadras | Documentary
2023 | 53 minutes | Spain
We examine how photography empowers survivors of childhood sexual abuse to express themselves through powerful imagery and personal testimonies.
Synopsis
This poignant documentary explores the transformative power of photography as a medium for personal expression and healing. Through a respectful and inspiring lens, it chronicles the creative and emotional journeys of individuals who experienced sexual abuse in childhood.
The film showcases the delicate, yet impactful images produced in the participatory photography workshop Material Sensible, alongside the courageous testimonies of the participants. It highlights the positive outcomes of this project, organized by the Photographic Social Vision Foundation—an advocate for the principles of documentary photography—collaborating with the Vicki Bernadet Foundation, which specializes in the care and prevention of child sexual abuse.
The film not only underscores the potential of visual media as a therapeutic tool but also emphasizes the importance of interdisciplinary approaches in addressing complex social issues.
