The epiphanies

Les épiphanies questions the heteronormative system and explores the awakening of a lesbian desire through a theatre of objects and personal documents. 

SYNOPSIS

Through a personal narrative, Les épiphanies questions the heteronormative system in which our desires are embedded and explores how it seeps into our intimate spheres. Certain encounters act as revolutions, sweeping away all established certainties. From the awakening of a lesbian desire emerges its share of intimate wanderings. Through a theatre of objects and personal documents, the film offers a sketch of this journey, proposing a rereading of our archives in a desire to contribute to a lesbian legacy.
