HEART OF THE WOMAN or 24/I. 60min., Croatia
Directed by Andrejka Skračić
Suzana does her best to be a good mom to Vana and Jere, supports her husband and takes care of their home while trying to be creative – when and if she finds time. Although she is busy 24 hours a day and often exhausted, Croatian Employment Service and most of the society treat her as a person without work. Suzana finds this unjust and humiliating and has the need to make a film about one ordinary day in her life. Her film consists of 24 scenes, each capturing one aspect of her existence, from duties and realities, to dreams, longings and confessions. She gets up early, feeds the children, takes them out, then she does the laundry, makes lunch ready and writes project and job applications that are always turned down. She is at the market, employment office, beach. At night she wakes up to comfort her little son and reflects on life, love and lack of support and understanding. Tired but inspired by verses of E. Dickenson and Tarkovski’s work, Suzana decides to make a film dedicated to motherhood and woman’s creativity.
