Utilizing groundbreaking research, newly-discovered home movies, and intimate storytelling that intertwines interview with anecdote, this documentary re-creates the mood and flavor of a unique female artistic community who flocked to the City of Lights during its most magical era.
Through a combination of still photos, archival film footage, and interview commentary, this film documents the creative community of French, English and American women, many of whom were lesbians, who gravitated to the Left Bank in Paris during the early part of the 20th century.
