Bianka

By Ibtissam El Azami

"I had already spent so many tears on Dad and Grandma that I thought I no longer knew how to cry."

In a small town where boredom crushes everything, Katia drags her grief like a guilty secret. Then she meets Baka, a homeless man who hears the voices of his dead. His secret has a name: Bianka. An old friend. Katia has crossed paths with her before, in London, in Rome, in parties where dilated pupils pass for conversation. Now Bianka has come back for her. And with her, the promise of seeing the dead again.

Dark, raw, and unflinching, Bianka follows a young woman who chooses the extreme in order not to give up on love. A story about grief, duality, life on the margins, and the thin line between hope and self-destruction.
