Maria, I Need Your Lovin'

Director: Martijn van de Griendt
Intimate and raw portrait of the vulnerable teen mother Maria, who tries to get a grip on life. A combination of moving images and Polaroids, made over a period of one decade.

For a decade, photographer Martijn van de Griendt followed teen mother Maria, who is looking for unconditional love and structure in her life. This intimate and raw portrait of Maria, a combination of moving images and photographs, reveals that she literally and figuratively has many different faces. The video images offer an uncensored glimpse of her daily life; the Polaroids provide a view of her soul. Beneath Maria’s fierceness and extreme behaviour, there is a sensitive, hurt girl looking for true love.
