Taken - Children of the State
On June 12, 2019, the Committee to Investigate Violence in Youth Care presented its final report. The conclusions were startling. Kim Feenstra set out to find out what progress has been made within the Youth Care system since then and ended up in a circle of grief and pain dominated by money, power and powerlessness. In her search, Kim Feenstra spoke to many people involved. The stories can be described as downright shocking. In many cases Youth Care appears to act as a revenue model that is exploiting parents and children. The complex system has only one entrance, but the exit is obstructed by all stakeholders who want to maintain their revenue model. The people who really matter, the parents and children, encounter a power block of inhuman proportions. A system dominated by money, power and powerlessness.

The Memories Stoned Inside her
The Memories Stoned Inside her
The documentary mini-series records the memories of everyday women who lived an occupied life and survived the horrors of the Second World War. More than 70 women, from all over Greece, tell how they were forced, at a tender age, to mature violently in one night and face war, hunger, occupation, resistance and liberation, with bravery, composure and resourcefulness . Some energetic, some shy, some still emotionally charged, these women remember how their fear turned into strength and the play of carefree childhood became a responsibility and an adult role. Their testimonies are small mosaics that make up the palimpsest of the micro-history of Greece. A story experienced through multiple lives.. Their memories are precious not only because they are the last survivors of a martyred historical period, but because they co-shaped, with missing emotions and a spiritually plundered world, a new life.

From our window one can see a set of the film The Green Years, directed by Paulo Rocha in 1963. This was our starting point: guided by Rocha's gaze, we look back at the places of that film. The successive geological, urbanistic and social strata of Lisbon, besieged by the pandemic that interrupted the shooting, are drawn out in front of our camera, like a contemporary jazz impro from a score written in 1963.
