Melding a combination of dance, poetry and text, Trinh T. Minh-ha delves into the lives of several women, focusing on how their gender determines their lesser status despite the extent of their wisdom. Assuming a strong political stance, this film gives voice to an entire segment of Vietnamese society forced to otherwise remain silent. 16mm Print courtesy of the Academy Film Archive.
