During a couple of years I took pictures of myself when I was angry. I could get so sad and angry that I fought. I thought I looked like a child in these pictures. This is a short film dealing with a time that make me both ashamed and proud.

When I got angry mom and dad always said "let's talk things over" and I remember it almost always worked. But if those words don't change anything, to what use are they? What's left is a will to change the situation. "Fighting isn't gonna solve anything" those are common rules we've all heard since kindergarden. But who's said that fighting is about solving anything. For me fighting is about having no words left and giving up upon being understood but not wanting or daring to walk away. During a couple of years I took pictures of myself when I was angry. I could get so sad and angry that I fought. I thought I looked like a child in these pictures. This is a short film dealing with a time that make me both ashamed and proud.
