When I die, you can do what you want
Adela Jušić

The video shows me colouring hair of my grandmother. After recording that video, my grandmother died and I set down and wrote all the stories she ever told me that I could remember. I kept her way of narrating and language she uses exactly the way it was and made the narrative for this video. My voice that whispers tells the story of her life, in a very intimate way, presenting inner flow of memory thoughts, forming a life story of an old woman. Although it is just a story of some old women, through the narration one can easily imagine the contemporary atmosphere of a socio-political reality that is surrounding hers and our generations.
