About the film
Women (many of them lesbian) artists, writers, photographers, designers, and adventurers settled in Paris between the wars. They embraced France, some developed an ex-pat culture, and most cherished a way of life quite different than the one left behind.
The movie's concept is intriguing because bohemian women have received less coverage than the male artists and writers with whom they shared a unique time and place.
