The Basement Girl

Directed by Midi Onodera
Canada, 2000 (experimental / fiction, 12 minutes, colour)

Film Description:
"Abandoned by her lover, a young woman finds comfort and safety in her basement apartment. Mundane routines, a diet of junk food and the warmth of the television insulate her from the pain and betrayal of her ill-fated relationship. Eventually, The Basement Girl emerges—transformed and ready to 'make it on her own.'"
