That Which Does Not Kill

Politics/Society, Belgium/France 2022

Warning: this documentary deals with the subject of rape. Ada is 19. A man she knows invites her to dinner and she accepts. Everything goes so quickly. She doesn’t defend herself. Body and mind in tatters. In spite or because of that, she returns twice to confront him. Her story is intertwined with others, each one different yet all the same – a nasty, insane, commonplace story.
