Literary Paris in the teens and 20's. This documentary touches on the lives of so many women who in their way have inspired us to be who we are. It is based on the book sellers of the period which were many women. It was they who touched the literary pulse of the nation and the world. The film touches on aspects of Gertrude Stein, Alice B. Toklas, Splita Solano, Renee Vivian, Natalie Barney Colette and so many of the women who shared their love of each other in the open. They were not judged but set into a separate society of literate women. Wonderful watch. I enjoyed it thoroughly enjoyed it.
