Allers-venues
Women meet for the summer in a Provençal house. In a rather idyllic nature, they get active, paint, do gymnastics, rest, sometimes dressed, sometimes not. They can also be seen inside the house, busy preparing meals and always in the company of animals; cats or chickens. In spite of the fast pace of the images and the wild soundtrack, the atmosphere is serene until the separation, when the holiday is over, at the train station.

"It's a bit like putting together a family album from my personal archives," Vivian Ostrovsky said of this film made in 1984. The women of her generation, and those of the next, will also find images corresponding to the period of the creation of communities in the wake of May 1968 with the joyful and festive atmosphere that reigned in the feminist groups of the time. The chopped editing, the scrolling of images that you can't decipher at first glance, the soundtrack by Vivian Ostrovsky and Patrick Genêt, made of real sounds - you can make out the bells of the village church and the rooster crowing - and musical excerpts, which all contribute to constituting what the filmmaker and critic Yann Beauvais calls a "mosaic diary".
