Trauma (Psychical) =D.: Trauma.–Es.: trauma, traumatismo.–Fr.: trauma, traumatisme.–I.: trauma.–P.: trauma, traumatismo.

An event in the subject’s life defined by its intensity, by the subject’s incapacity to respond adequately to it, and by the upheaval and long-lasting effects that it brings about in the psychical organisation.

Follow our character, Dora, during her journey to find herself, within a long-lost friendship. Guide her into the deepness of her soul, to face her own fears and sadness. For this year theme, we choose to explore the concept of trauma, picturing what feel like to face it.
