DAY NIGHT DAY NIGHT

A19-year-old girl prepares to become a suicide bomber in Times Square. Ιt’s impossible to pinpoint her ethnicity.We never learn why she made her decision–she has made it already.We don’t know whom she represents, what she believes in–we only know she believes it absolutely. Inspired in part by a story in a Russian newspaper and playing off a history of Joan of Arc films, the film transpires on the girls face.The minimalism of the face is confronted with the visual and aural noise of the city. Faith comes face-to-face with the possibility of failure.
