Inquieta
An intimate and introspective experimental film in which the author's anxious manias and worries are presented visually, without the need for sound. The movement of her fingers and mouth, both tearing the skin, accompanied by the images of her eyes show that even though it is sometimes involuntary, the author is aware of her manias and because they are present at every moment of her life, they are evident to those around her. Even when conscious, her manias are almost impossible to control, as the body is already programmed to surrender to the internal need to self-mutilate in order to relieve some of the anxiety.
