From the very heart of the Pachamama region to the centre of the capital cities, Susy Shock creates her own path, and travels, as if she were a comet brightening up the instant, whichever instant she crosses our path. High heels and make up, streets, poetry, friends and companions; all contribute to her condition of reinventing herself: not a man, not a woman, not xxy nor h2o; but a monster of the abnormal, a butterfly who wants to play and enjoy. It is the dichotomy of the visible and invisible in the setting of a person, in the deconstruction of an identity. And, above all, it is all about the struggle to be who you want to be. Who wants to be normal? … Let others be the norm.
This film will be screened in our short film program Life Goes On.
