Director Statement

I come from a family of strong and long-lived women. Clara and Rita were nourished by this constellation but they have a life of their own. The journey they undertake will be an opportunity for Rita to really see her sister and connect with her. Thus, the film will have an intimate style, delving into the bond of the protagonists.
Porcelains is a short film that seeks to investigate that sisterly relationship but with the particularity of doing it with elderly women. We are at a historic moment where, finally, women and dissidents are taking the leading role. That is why we believe that other stories are urgently needed to build, as Jaques Ranciere would say, "a new landscape of what’s possible."
