THIS IS A PUNK MANIFESTO OF WHAT I WAS, WHAT I AM AND, MOST IMPORTANTLY, WHAT I'VE BECOME.
RECAP OF A FAILURE is the video narration of the last four years of the life of a young dancer, performer and artist called Sara Giudice. Based in Italy, I decided to make my pain visible, to make myself vulnerable, to spread the words of young, isolated, mentally ill artists with economic issues. The purpose of RECAP is making a statement in the mental health activism and art field and giving meaning to four long years of artistic and mental decadence. I also made this to feel less lonely all the time. --------------------------- The clips in this video were shot with a Huawei smartphone and two other unknown smartphones. The indoor clips in this video were shot in Sensazione Fitness (Aprilia, LT, Italy), Scup Sport (Rome, RM, Italy), Spazio 47 (Aprilia, LT, Italy), my bedroom and my home's garage (Aprilia, LT, Italy). The outdoor clip in this video was shot during a random sports' festival (Ardea, RM, Italy). In order of appearance, you can see: me (Sara Giudice), my young and dear ex dance partners, my ex colleagues, my uncle's car. I only own my sighs and grunts in the audio of this video. This video was edited with Windows Movie Maker 2012 on my Acer personal computer.
