“it is a letter. First and foremost, a letter to my daughter who, at the moment I conceived this film, was still in my womb.’’
mireille draws a naked woman and a dog for Olivia. Anna puts on her makeup. Priscillie and Virginie undress. Milo becomes familiar with girls’ legs. Annie feels at ease with the tools of her trade. Françoise reads the cards. Christian is jealous. And I film this small theatre while waiting for you.
j’attends une femme is a film shot on Super 8, making extensive use of footage from the Home Movies Archive.
