PIECES
(2021)
SHORT FILM
Pieces explores the subject of Coercive Control and the damaging effect it can have on an individual.
Examples of Coercive Control include:
Isolating you from family and friends
Monitoring your time
Monitoring your online activity
Taking control over aspects of your everyday life, such as where you can go, who you can see, what you can wear and when you can sleep
Humiliating, degrading or dehumanising you
Controlling your finances
Showering you with expensive or unwanted gifts
This short also explores the importance of showing kindness to strangers because we often don’t fully know what is happening in people’s lives.
We don’t always get the full picture, sometimes we only get PIECES.
