From Inside the House - Episode 10: Christiane Génessier
Episode Description - Host: Mo Moshaty, Guest: Ariel Baska
A brilliant surgeon’s daughter grapples with profound physical and emotional trauma after a disfiguring car accident caused by her father. Isolated from the world and consumed by her altered identity, she endures the devastating consequences of her father’s obsessive quest to restore her lost beauty, blurring the lines between victim and accomplice.
Driven by a quiet yet unyielding rage, she ultimately reclaims her agency, turning the tables on her oppressor in a haunting act of poetic justice that liberates both herself and her father’s other victims. This is the story of Christiane Génessier and the call for autonomy, agency, and freedom is coming from inside the house.
Film discussed: Eyes Without a Face by Georges Franju and
Pierre Gascar
