Afterwards│结束之后
by Chongyan LIU
25 mins│France, UK│2023
In Afterwards, Chongyan Liu delivers a gesture of post-mortem cinema: the spaces empty of human presence are enveloped in a ghostly aura, as if they were seen from the perspective of the deceased, whose letters we hear, recounting a trans woman's difficult trajectory through life. Similarly, Afterwards is a journey: spatial, through a deconstructed Berlin; existential, through its narrative; political, as it is about an individual struggle.
