The daily crime

Nina Toussaint & 56' — 1994

Zoé was her father’s favourite victim. For eighteen years, she was mistreated, humiliated and raped on a daily basis…Today, she has the strenght to speak out, but her father has been discharged under the statute of limitations. The confrontation will never take place. The torturer will never own up…So Zoé is alone with her memories and words. And what good are memories and words? You remember… and return to the scene as to a former concentration camp, and say « it was here » and « it was me »…
