dinitrobenzol — SOLASTALGIA

SOLASTALGIA

Solastalgia is an audiovisual experiment built on cognitive dissonance — a single day in the life of a young woman, lived inside the rupture between her body and the way she sees it. The heroine tries to accept herself while remaining trapped within imposed ideals of female beauty. Her ordinary day becomes a space of quiet internal conflict, where self-care brings no closeness to the body — instead deepening the estrangement from it.
