Ophelia and her pain-tings... Afro Futurism magical realism short film...

​Ophelia's Opera directed by Abiola Abrams is a domestic violence revenge tale where Ophelia uses a spell to free herself from an abusive relationship. An experimental film in which each character speaks a different lyrical language- Shakespearian, rap verse, Cantonese, sign language and Jamaican patois—but they all understand each other.

​Ophelia's Opera is now a part of the Criterion Collection, in affiliation with Miranda July's Joanie4jackie: https://www.criterionchannel.com/ophelia-s-opera
