Confession

NEW DOCS

“I want to make a confession. I used my camera as a weapon to manipulate a now defenseless person and she has been haunting me ever since.” – Marina Petrovskaia, the filmmaker. Many families have skeletons in their closets that are never spoken of; this filmmaker’s family is no exception. Confession, shot in black and white, is a dark, disturbing look at a conversation between the filmmaker, who artfully creates an atmosphere of mystery and intrigue, and her ailing aunt. The filmmaker manipulates her aunt into confessing a secret, a secret she has not shared with anyone until now.  NEN
