Free Admission Juha lost his wife to a drowning. Despite the passing years, unable to overcome this tragedy, he persists in living alone. His encounter with Mona, a dominant woman, leads him to become interested in sadomasochistic practices, especially controlled suffocation. But his relationship with her, and with his own psyche, threatens to take him far away.

This screening is part of the series PERIFERIE. Questions from the Margins, curated by Martina Maccianti, a cycle of events exploring peripheries as places where languages, imaginaries, and practices emerge—capable of challenging dominant narratives of the present.

Each event begins at 7:00 PM with a public conversation around a book, followed at 9:00 PM by a film screening that enters into dialogue with the themes of the evening.
