This video About good and bad death is created with the purpose of raising the voices of the women held captive in Ravenbrück. The person only known as H.G wrote: “The hope of finally being free from the existence they were forced to live in, no matter what it meant” in their poem About good and bad death.
The piece expresses the longing for this liberation in the form of death, something that is visualized through sketches inspired by sketches and texts found in the women's notebooks that they kept throughout the time in Ravensbrück and the evacuation in 1945. The different scenes in the video are based on stories of the time and symbolism in the poem.

Music has an incredible ability to bring back memories, so the idea is to look at this film as memories brought back by music.
That is what I have tried to portray, with hand drawn animations and photographies that pictures scenes that took place during the time these women were held captive at Ravensbrück and their rescue in 1945. Brief moments that appear and just as quickly disappear again.
