Jonna & Louis

Jonna’s childhood friend Louis assaulted her sexually when they were both about 12 years old. While Louis almost forgot the incident, Jonna is struggling with PTSD. The situation is very demanding on Jonna’s loved ones as well. Does an offender have to act in bad faith to be violent? Who is to be blamed? The docu-fiction short shows a montage of five staged interviews while playing with common clichés and constructs of offenders and victims.
