Session Presentation
In this long-awaited return to our favourite theatres, the Femme Sessions return to Maus Hábitos as part of the Cinema at the Table section, and once again highlight cinema made by women!
For this 37th session, we invite you to join us to watch two short films that were part of the International Competition of the 3rd edition of Porto Femme - International Film Festival, and that explore, through conversations, synchronizations and desires, female sexuality.
Program
GODMOTHERS: VAGINISMUS STORIES
Spain | 18’38’’ | 2019
Director: Laura Laplana
Producer: Laura Laplana
Synopsis
Vaginismus is a condition in which involuntary contractions of muscles in the vagina makes penetration impossible. It has been considered a psychological problem without specific treatment but the protagonists of this short film prove these theories wrong with their stories of overcoming vaginismus with physiotherapy. Diana, Iraida and Jacqueline begin to shape an artistic project that they want to exhibit soon. Montse began years ago to organize an association. All of them want vaginismus to stop being invisible, and for that they have to name it and tell it. Because as they well know, what has no name does not exist.
SYNCHRONIZATION
Poland | 19’54’’ | 2019
Director: Anna Kasińska
Producer: Anna Kasińska, Joanna Ruta Baranowska
Synopsis
In 2084, when the male sex is near extinction, four women wait for their menstrual cycles to synchronize. They all want to become mothers and there can only be one donor. When the day comes, the donor finally appears at their doorstep. During dinner he suffers an accident and seems to be dead.
