Still striking for its confidence and lightness of touch
First Canadian Feature Film Directed by a Woman
This avant-garde effort by Mireille Dansereau is a feminist film from the early 70s that explores the emotional state of two 20-something women in Montreal. Without trying to be radical, Dansereau attempts to take a uniquely feminine perspective on the sexual blossoming of this women while pitting them against a still prominent patriarchal society.
The film is relatively episodic with no flowing narrative, other than the girls sexual obsession with a well established and married man. Their personal liberation is some-what predictable and anticlimactic, but none the less appropriate for the style of the film. Also contains a fair bit of nudity, always a bonus!
