Hands: The Life and Loves of the Gentler Sex (1927)
• January 1st, 1927 • 0h 13min
Fantasy
Overview
The use of human hands as characters in a dance inspired narrative are used to explore female experience and representation. By drawing upon experimental traditions found in international art, film, and photography movements of the 1920s, Simon transforms a simple melodramatic love story into an avant-garde feminist short film.
