Mama Klorin

Synopsis

Doreida, a daughter of immigrants, visual artist, and cleaner by profession, turns the lens on herself and those who share her reality. Through intimate encounters with cleaners in Greece, including her mother, she weaves their untold stories into a collective narrative about art, dignity, and the fight for rights. Blurring the lines between work and creation, the film is a testament to unseen labor and the resilience of those who carry it.
