The Bastard Images takes you on an intimate exploration of the enigma of family, the force that shapes us and unveils our essence to the world. Temporarily blinded by a visual impairment, the filmmaker delves deep into a collection of home movies shot and narrated by her father during the early 1990s. She embarks in a decisive search to confront and challenge the looming specter of patriarchal dynamics that inhabit these archives, which have shaped her identity and suffocate her present. As she transforms the images, she liberates the characters trapped in these family tapes, weaving a narrative that serves as a bridge to connect with her father and becomes a new lense to look at herself.
