Constrain

2021 · 11 min

A stark, unsettling reconstruction that makes state violence feel abstract and bodily at once, hard to shake off.

Overview
Through a poignant reconstruction of police violence that has occurred in France in recent years, Constrain shows the expression of state violence against individuals. A disturbing staging, combining a green background and 3D sets, tells an unprecedented way of these acts of repression, based on persecuted and humiliated bodies. - Alice Riva
