About The Motion

“The perspective of four women, the voices of three, but the story of one and so many.”

The Motion is a 2025 English drama film directed by Lisa Danilkovych. It runs 8 minutes. The cast is led by Daria-Andreea Lupu, Viola Townsend and Maira Rose van Emden. It holds an IMDb rating of 10.0.

This experimental short film explores the reconstruction and recollection of traumatic events through fragmented memories, using a non-linear narrative and a layered visual approach. The film emphasizes the penetration of montage, with an anarchic and chaotic tone that reflects both fun and disorder. The film brings to life concerns about how a woman moves, how she speaks, dreams, and how she is stripped of her inherent qualities by a society which continues to sexualize and harmfully perceive her. It visualizes a recollection of thoughts, dreams and memories, symbolically intertwining the characters experiences of their conscious with their subconscious.
