Rocks in My Pockets

An animated film by Signe Baumane (Latvia) about depression, suicide and a family story

with artist talk

"Rocks In My Pockets" is a story of mystery and redemption. The film is based on true events involving five women of Signe Baumane's family, including herself, and their battles with depression and suicide. It raises questions of how much family genetics determine who we are and if it is possible to outsmart one's own DNA. The film is packed with visual metaphors, surreal images and a twisted sense of humor. It is an animated tale full of art, women, strange daring stories, Latvian accents, history, nature, adventure and more.

Signe Baumane is a Latvian animator, visual artist, illustrator and author currently living and working in New York City.
