FREEDOMLESS 2008 NYC SCREENING
Anthology Film Archives
New York, NY
Freedomless is a film documentary that attempts to portray in gritty detail the ongoing problem of Domestic Violence. Abuse has always had a muted existence, buried in the past for religious, political, cultural, and social reasons. Ironically, now that we are more encouraged than ever to
denounce abuse and seek protection, now that freedom has modernized our rituals and traditions, now that organizations are actively promoting support and solidarity for the cause, now that laws have been passed
that truly defend and protect us, violence at home continues to prevent us from being completely free. Now is when we truly deserve to be.
Shama and Ana, from Egypt and Japan are connected by living in the same city, being abused by their husbands and visiting the same social worker, Helena, who is helping them to fight against the abuse, face the truth and break the silence.
Freedomless presents, portrays, and catapults onto the screen this fact while showing at the same time human denigration at its worst.
This film is dedicated primarily to women all over the world, to encourage them to keep fighting, never give up, and keep hope alive.
Screening will be presented by actor Sam Dimian and director Xoel Pamos, both will be participating in a discussion about domestic violence where audience, organization, victims and professionals will express their opinion.
A portion of FREEDOMLESS NY 2008 SCREENING profits is given back to Petra Luna Foundation that fights against child and women abuse.
