SYNOPSIS
One week only with limited screenings! French documentary titan Claire Simon observes the everyday operations in the gynecology ward of a public hospital in Paris. In the process, she questions what it means to live in a woman’s body, filming the diversity, singularity and beauty of patients in all stages of life. Through these many encounters, the specific fears, desires and struggles of these individuals become the health challenges we all face, even the filmmaker herself.

REVIEWS
“Simon’s belief in the interconnectedness yet singularity of the varied patients is palpable. She rewards our patience with a deeper understanding of our bodies and ourselves.”
“Simon takes us into the most intimate, terrifying, and sometimes joyful moments faced by the people who come to the hospital.”
“The ‘Our’ of the title is well earned. Simon films the lives of others with an empathetic passion that transforms observation into deep and resonant subjectivity.”
