The Woman in the Wardrobe burrows under Nadiya’s skin, and captures the spirit of birth from her point of view.
We meet Nadiya at the final stages of her solo labour, where she has locked herself in her family wardrobe with a key that resides on a necklace around her sternum. Small embers of the brutal outside world stream through the open slats of the darkened wardrobe.

The wardrobe is a tiny pocket of happiness in the centre of a genocide. It harbours a moment of feminine power and facilitates an internally epic transformation. The space gifts what is taken away in war, it holds new life and a glimpse of a hopeful future beyond the conflict.
The wardrobe is a womb, a cradle, a portal to safety. It fiercely protects Nadiya and her newborn.

Clay Remembers is a short documentary that follows the personal journeys of Claire, Natasha, and Susan, members of YWCA Toronto’s Inspirations Studio, a ceramics program for women and gender-diverse people who have experienced marginalization. The Studio offers more than creative space. It provides community, income opportunities, and a path toward healing.

Through intimate interviews and poetic visuals, the film reveals how clay, a material that remembers every touch and impression, becomes a vehicle for growth, self-expression, and recovery. As each participant molds their work, they reflect on the ways creativity has helped them rebuild their lives with strength and purpose.
