Overview

In “Out Lookers”, Verena Blok portrays older women who reclaim their space in public. Witnessing these women age while she herself was maturing into womanhood, the dominant Western discourse privileging youthful femininity rendered them slowly invisible. The film uses snippets of candid conversation between the artist and the women about the transitional nature of femininity. At times they speak through a book they love, Olga Tokarczuk's“DriveYour PlowOverTheBonesOfThe Dead” (2009), a bleakly comic mystery novel about a post-menopausal woman who raises fierce questions about human behavior.
