Saturday, November 5 - 8:00 pm
Ten-year-old Naomi Allon must wear a corset 23 hours a day to counter the severe curvature of her spine, caused by Williams syndrome, a rare genetic condition. She and her father, an artist, decide to make a film to help soothe her many anxieties. Despite her father's attempts to present loving, artistic images of his daughter, Naomi must face the unstinting eye of the camera. As she rages against the restrictions of her life, she also battles for control of the film itself. All this dissolves when Naomi enters the hospital for a crucial operation. Regardless of who controls the filming, neither father nor daughter can predict what will emerge on the other side.
