The Wife of Them All (2022) follows a family based across continents as they traverse and move beyond borders, mad bureaucracy and precarious work. Part experimental documentary and part-science fiction, the animation unfolds a heist plot unique in addressing the global fertility market in relation to the migratory control system.
The characters are voiced by (non)actors, artists and activists, including Sabrina Michelle Rivera Sanchez (Coordinator at Sexwork Europe, Amsterdam, and member of Otras Sindicato de Trabajadoras Sexuales Spain); Alejandra Durga Ramos (former member of Barcelona’s Sindihogar Union of Domestic Workers) and Pratibha Parmar (filmmaker).
The film premiered at the 27th LesGaiCineMad Festival and travelled to the 69th International Oberhausen Short Film Festival with support from HAMACA moving image platform.
Further screenings include the 9th GRRLHAUS "The Future, Space & Technology", Berlin; the 9th VAFT Video Art Festival Turku, Finland and "Labocine" running parallel to the 17th Science New Wave film festival in New York, among others.
