What would you say if you only had as long as it takes the traffic light to turn green? Well, I would not talk. I would listen. For only a minute. To the impact of my life. On yours. Elisabeth is given a special gift. Her body is lying on the bathroom floor, her husband is standing above it. She, however, is perched on a traffic light in Vienna's first district. There are thirteen people waiting at 11.47 at night on the 28th of June 2024 at the crossing in front of the University. Apparently strangers, she gets to listen to them. Now that her own eyes can no longer see, her ears no longer hear, she knows that her voice has to ring louder than ever, reach across the rooftops and penetrate the walls of silence until it touches your thoughts and makes them shout. She won't live to see another day. With the seconds left to her, she shares what she hears. She wants you to join her morning song. One voice that obliterates the violence against women. #stopfemicide
