For a year and a half I interviewed my mother multiple times about her past: we talked about her meeting my father, about love and the decision to marry. It is also a film about the historical testimony of women who came of age in the late 1950s and the evolution of the female experience of the past half-century.enAuthor owns copyright, except where explicitly noted.
