DEAD WOMEN WALKING

Hagar Ben-Asher

USA 2018 101 DCP Color

Film description

An anthology of nine heartbreaking vignettes from the last weeks, visits, moments, and wishes of women on the death row attempts to interpret the gaze of Western societies to gendered violence, with pure emotion as its only tool. By interweaving small narratives of the inmates and their satellites, a young Israeli female director leads us to an uncharted area, reminding us an inconvenient fact: A 90% of women in prison are victims of abuse.
