The Ladies Almanack

Learn the secrets of 1928's Parisian lesbian literary circle. Based on Djuna Barnes's book following lesbian Casanova Natalie Barney, this Super 8 film explores the rich queer femme social scene of jazz-age Paris. Spanning time, the large cast, including Hélène Cixous, Eileen Myles, and Guinevere Turner, portrays the lives of artists and luminaries (Gertrude Stein, Collete, Dolly Wilde), exposing the lush lesbian landscape that gave rise to some of literature's most treasured writing.
