Sinopsis
This documentary celebrates the voice of women beginning to be heard in cinema. It stars Basque filmmakers of yesterday and today, which shows a universal vision of the subject. Three divers guide us through the theme of their films, their gaze, their dreams, their efforts to get ahead and, above all, their contribution to cinema and society. We will discover the pioneers, and we will be surprised by the works of veteran filmmakers or young people who are succeeding at festivals.
