Synopsis
I ask my mother about her past feminist commitment, and why she made a child on her own. She doesn’t answer me. I want to pierce the mystery of my mother. I discover the women’s movement of the 1970s, an activist feminist cinema, and the woman filmmaker that I am changes.
Press
“In total it is a composite film, which goes a little in all directions. But that’s why he’s so captivating, so seductive, so attractive. And that’s why it’s unforgettable.”
