Synopsis

In the summer of 2014, for the third time in her life, Victoria is sexually abused by a man. This time, she has had enough. With her camera as an ally, she decides to step out of the passive role of ‘victim’ and act. Filming in the aftermath of abuse, this project is her way of navigating thecsmall space she has to relate to following a traumatic event. It is also an exploration of her own ambivalence: sometimes, she doubts herself, wonders if the whole endeavour is crazy; sometimes, she is absolutely convinced of its importance. This ambivalence is mirrored in the rise and fall of the #MeToo movement that occurs in the midst of making the film. Heartfelt, dark, and at times humorous, Boundaries is Victoria’s story; telling it, her way of taking back control.
