Amanda
Amanda has painted in isolation for years, using art as both expression and refuge. Institutionalised and labelled, she reclaims her narrative through her canvas. As she prepares for her first retrospective, her story reaches national newspapers, and she navigates the vulnerability of sharing her art and her truth. Will this confrontation lead to healing or a reopening of old wounds? Through immersive explorations of her luminous works, Jiménez’s documentary captures Amanda’s transformation of silence into radiance.
