Mature women speak about their marriages, their first time, and their intimate relationship with sexuality. Through the repetition of these ancestral rituals, the director questions her own lack of marriage and children, reflecting on a chain of mother-daughter relationships that is gradually disappearing.
* This film will be screened alongside Les Habitants in the Expanded Cinema section.

In this documentary, the filmmaker looks through her mother’s wedding photos, a simple act that leads her to reflect on the social status of women at the time and her own personal history. Through a series of interviews with elderly women, the film shares stories of marriage, intimate relationships, and children, showing images of women getting married in archival photos. Sometimes hiding and other times revealing words and images, the director draws out candid stories that might emerge from very intimate and private relationships. While specifically focused on the experiences of women from southern Spain, this film captures stories and emotions that women around the world can relate to. (Sung MOON)
