A personal and social research project. A reflection on mental health and the body (physical, institutional, mental, social, urban, affective, political, etc.), how these bodies and these voices occupy a space in our society, and the ways we interact with them. This project was inspired by Bárbara’s discovery of a family secret and the need to reconstruct the story of her paternal grandmother.
