Collective French work from 1975 shot in black and white, the film is the result of a collaboration among six women who aimed to explore their subjective experiences through the body. The narrative unfolds through images of bodily experiences, interspersed with spoken words, fragments of sentences, and music. Rather than a traditional story, it presents a sequence of gestures of suffering, pleasure, and self-gratification, described as "gestures of sculpture". The work documents a search for identity that remains fragmented and ongoing, capturing discussions that reflect a "woman-movement" in its developmental stage. Ultimately, it serves as a record of a collective consciousness caught in the very act of its formation
