CGiii Comment

In Kazakhstan no river meets the ocean, but Kristina's film floods the land with River girls.

Armed with radical tenderness, I'm diving into the emotional landscape of Kazakhstan through the voices of women along the river. Me, Kazakhstan, and the River girls all just hit 30, that brutal age when you realize no one is coming to save you.

My River girls reveal the scars of being a woman and what it means to resist the constant oppression in my homeland.

So close your eyes. Drown in river dreams.
