Anna Gatt's Journey of Reinvention

Anna Gatt shares her experiences of starting anew multiple times throughout her life, particularly highlighting her most significant reinvention that took place ten years ago. After relocating from Budapest due to the oppressive political climate under the Orban regime, she faced a personal and family cataclysm that stripped her of everything, including her material possessions and relationships. This period of intimate violence pushed her to confront her survival instincts and rebuild her life from scratch, a process that took nearly a decade. Gatt reflects on the profound time loss caused by such violent experiences, emphasizing how it robs individuals of years that should have been spent pursuing their dreams and aspirations.
