Overview
“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. I meet and testify to the transmission of a memory of feminist struggles through collective cinematographic practices.” Anna Salzberg
