Program Note
Three women who grew up under patriarchal norms, always reprimanded to be “a good girl” but never learned anything about masturbation and orgasm, recollect their concealed memories and repressed desires. Represented on the screen by Sol Carballo, we follow the women’s journey through their first crush, first period, first rape, first childbirth. Once hushed voices now speak out with such candor and resilience, undaunted by the miseries of their past. Despite the grim stories they share, these women exhibit a great deal of charm and are surprisingly full of humor. Described as “the conversation I never had with my grandmother”, Antonella Sudasassi Furniss portrays a magnificent tribute to the strength of all our mothers and grandmothers, and celebrates the unyielding power of human spirit. It is never too late to take control of your body and your destiny, and to become totally free. (Karen PARK)
