Behind closed doors, the silent strategy built on shame surrounding acts of abuse, where "see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil" becomes the prevailing behavior pattern, the characters of the series embody a strong female attitude. With this attitude, they are capable of recognizing and acknowledging their situation, and they are able to break free from toxic relationships.

 

DOMESTIC VIOLENCE

Domestic abuse takes various forms, including physical, emotional, verbal, sexual, and economic abuse. The close emotional bond becomes the stage for violence, as the perpetrator can be a spouse, partner, parent, or relative. The primary targets of domestic violence are predominantly women and children, as they are vulnerable in multiple aspects. In recent times, including the period of the coronavirus pandemic, numerous studies have shown a concerning increase in intimate partner violence. Globally, one in three women experiences intimate partner violence, which may involve physical abuse as well. In Hungary, more than 200,000 women suffer from ongoing physical or psychological abuse in their homes.

 

TOXIC RELATIONSHIP

Exiting a toxic relationship is not easy; it is often risky and comes with many losses. The victim often has to make the decision about which basic need or human right they are willing to sacrifice. In such a situation, the abused individual's fundamental needs and rights will inevitably be compromised. Physical and emotional safety are often only achieved much later.

 

GIRL PØWER

„In the first portraits of the series, there are my defining friends who are very close to me - actresses Andrea Koncz, Annamária Kovács, and Erika Tankó - who not only experienced a toxic relationship firsthand but also managed to break free from its spiral. As a continuation of the series, our goal is to launch a project-based movement with the participation of artists and respected women. We believe that art is not solely meant to serve aesthetic and cultural needs but can also have a healing and transformative impact on our society.”

A zárt ajtók mögött történt bántalmazások szégyenre épülő néma stratégiájával, a “nem látja a rosszat, nem hallja a rosszat, nem beszél a rosszról” magatartásmintával szemben, a sorozat szereplői olyan erős női attitűdöt képviselnek, mellyel képesek felismerni és belátni helyzetüket, képesek kilépni a mérgező kapcsolatból.
