Ο ΜΠΛΕ ΚΛΗΡΟΣ
Η Κάλα γνωρίζει πώς λειτουργεί το σύστημα. Όλοι το γνωρίζουν. Την ημέρα της πρώτης περιόδου σου, παρουσιάζεσαι στον σταθμό κλήρωσης για να μάθεις τι είδους γυναίκα θα γίνεις. Ο λευκός κλήρος υπαγορεύει οικογένεια και παιδιά, ο μπλε κλήρος καριέρα και ελευθερία. Έτσι απαλλάσσεσαι από το βάρος της επιλογής μια για πάντα: αφού πάρεις τον κλήρο, δεν υπάρχει επιστροφή. Όμως τι θα έκανες αν η ζωή που σου δόθηκε είναι η λάθος ζωή; Όταν η Κάλα παίρνει τον μπλε κλήρο, αρχίζει να αμφισβητεί το πεπρωμένο της, αναγκάζεται να εγκαταλείψει τα πάντα και ...

(P/B) THE WATER CURE
Imagine a world very close to our own: where women are not safe in their bodies, where desperate measures are required to raise a daughter. This is the story of Grace, Lia and Sky, kept apart from the world for their own good and taught the terrible things that every woman must learn about love.

The Water Cure is a fever dream, a blazing vision of suffering, sisterhood...
