"I dedicate my life to showing the world that one can pretend to be whoever they want.“ Eva. A 25-year-old drifter, Berliner, pet-owner, poet, lesbian, sex worker, virgo, housewife, addict, feminist and model, Eva declared privacy an outdated concept at the age of 14. This is the tale of a young woman growing up in the age of the internet, turning the search for oneself into a public spectacle, and challenging conceptions of what a woman should be. Through her fragmented personalities you see the emergence of a generation, in which the concept of a fixed identity has grown old. A portrait of modern existence.
