A short fil that follows a body subjected to institutional and diffuse forms of power: medicalization, psychiatric labeling, regimes of sexuality, and everyday violence. Moving between a white clinical space, a cemetery in Toulouse, and ordinary interiors, the film unfolds through gestures, textures, and encounters with other bodies. Inspired by Michel Foucault, Deleuze and Guattari, Artaud, Rancière, and critical thought from Latin America, this short film traces a sensitive cartography of emancipation and asks a simple yet difficult question: what can a body do when it attempts to reclaim its own history?
