Cause Of Death (Country: South Africa, Austria; Year: 2020; Director: Jyoti Mistry)
Women’s bodies are always at risk. An autopsy report describes the physical impact on the body that results in death but hides the structural and recurrent violence on women’s bodies that leads to femicide.
Loving In Between (Country: Sweden, Austria; Year: 2023; Director: Jyoti Mistry)
Between birth and death is the power to love and live. Political rules, religious orders, social norms and cultural taboos control who we love and how we love. But the erotic has the power to emancipate.
When I Grow Up I Want To Be A Black Man (Country: South Africa, Austria; Year: 2017; Director: Jyoti Mistry)
The black man is always running, he is always chased, he is always running… Running to save his life. A black man runs towards freedom.
