Camilla's final video

Camilla, I thought your piece was very original. The way it showed the physical tension and pain experienced by women going through the trauma of an abortion really made an impression on me. I thought you did an excellent job of showing the relationship of the women to their bodies during this experience, and the way they were both trying to stroke or comfort themselves and each other and also pressing and scratching at their own skin in anxiety. I would really like to see this documentary expanded—I think you could work the techniques you used in this short piece into the more complex structure you had imagined in your treatment.
