The Face of the Jellyfish / Melisa Liebenthal

Sinopsis

Marina’s face suddenly changed. As in a Kafka-esque nightmare, in her early thirties, her face ceased to be what it was. Who is she now? Through Marina’s story, the film delves into a reflection around the meaning of the face, emblem of our identity and nerve center of how we connect with others, human or non-human. Can we be somebody beyond our face, beyond our image?
