Battlefield
8 min, Silvia Biagioni and Andrea Laudante, AAMOD, 2020
Intimate, other, virginal, objectified, ethereal, fragmented: the female body mirrors a battlefield for all women that, in the 1960’s and 1970’s, claimed its re-appropriation. Battlefield is a tribute to all second-wave feminist movements, an imaginary journey between different representations of femininity, in a process of subjective re-appropriation of the archive.
The film was realised during an art residency at AAMOD Archivio Audiovisivo del Movimento Operaio e Democratico, with the support of MiBACT and SIAE, and premiered at Ji.hlava International Documentary Film Festival 2020. Trailer
