Guilty Until Proven Innocent

Directed by Friedl vom Gröller

The filming of my discomfort at being a woman between the ages of 60-70 in our society has the function of a valve. It is based on the incomprehension of people who are not affected when I report negation, sometimes mistrustful reactions in daily anonymous dealings in public. Even women of the same age adapt to the general panic of old age, which may be the reason for this, and deliberately overlook each other. I, too, have noticed this exclusionary gaze towards ageing women.
