    THE DEADLESS WOMAN

     2021 International Feature Documentary Film Competition / Popular

    UK, 2019, 90’
    Director: Roz Mortimer

    This urgent and magical hybrid documentary fluidly interweaves fantastical
    re-imaginings of buried secrets with a ghostly narration and direct to camera
    testimony from survivors and witnesses of historic and contemporary crimes
    against the Roma in Poland and Hungary.
    A Roma woman buried alive in a forest in Poland during WWII returns to haunt
    us, uncovering a history of atrocities against the Roma in Europe. She is the
    Deathless Woman. Motivated by rage, she rises from her grave to draw our
    attention to the persecution of the Roma people from the 1940s to the NeoNazi hate crimes of the present day.
