I am incredibly impressed. I watched the film at home and was lost in it. I was lost in the lives of the women, their stories, the incredible art produced by each. I am not an artist, but my mother was a painter. I felt her with me when I watched this film. The meta story about women artists, the feminist movement, the act and demands of caregiving, the challenges/sacrifices, the simultaneous visibility and invisibility of women artists came off the screen at me. I think at some point an instructional guide should accompany this film because it clearly has a place in classrooms -- I for one want to show it in my intro women's studies course in the spring!
