Overview

In April, 1939, the police came to the home of Dr. Madeleine Pelletier. Who could this woman declared as a threat to pubic order and safety be? Seen as so dangerous that she should not be allowed to defend herself, she was interned in an asylum. Feminist activist, asexual / lesbian and libertarian, the first French female psychiatrist, she invented the concept of gender.
