Objects of My Disaffection
drama
After splitting up with her partner, a young mother externalises her feelings of loss and resentment through the family's possessions. In this devastating depiction of the complexities of relationships, objects are both lines in the sand and triggers for memory as a woman wrestles with suburban normalcy post-breakup. Using mixed media to capture its protagonist's fragmented mental state, and bolstered by a frenetic, clanging score.
