Director: Greta Schiller
GB 1996, movie length 75 min
, original version German, DVD projection
With: Juliet Stevenson, Maureen All, Gillian Hanna, Margaret Robertson, Shari Benstock, Gertrude Stein, Sylvia Beach, Alice B. Toklas, Colette
Well-researched documentary with unique, never-before-seen footage of the legendary international group of women artists who came together in Paris in the 1920s and 1930s and played a decisive role in shaping cultural life on the "Rive Gauche".
Djuna Barnes, Gertrude Stein, Janet Flanner, Sylvia Beach and several other women - a group in which each of them realized herself in an unconventional way and went her own radical way against all resistance, and which, as a close community, transformed Paris into that which, among other things, distinguished this city at the time.
An illuminating, highly interesting look at Paris at the time!
