After a woman has been abused, how can she regain power over her body and mind? How can she resurface? SALIR is an immersion into sensorial memories of a woman, offering two contrasting perspectives on her relationship with the world. One is associated with the external experience, immersed in a river, in her physical confrontation with reality: a place of purification, refuge, and adversity. The other one is tied to the mental space, to fantasies and traumatic memories. Water then becomes the poetic element that allows us to make a link between them, to move from the conscious to the unconscious, to the internal and external experience, in search of a catharsis.
