Hi Mei,

I recommend Maverick Mother by Janet Merewether. Here is a link to the 
documentary's official website: http://www.maverickmother.net/index.html

Best,
Chunchi Wang

Subject: [SCREEN-L] maternal body in film and video


Dear all!

I am currently searching - in the context of my dissertation project - for 
films that deal with the maternal body. Whereas I encountered several 
avantgarde films that, often made by men, deal with the pregnant body and 
childbirth, I'd be more interested in autobiographic forms of film and video 
where the filmmaker herself thematizes her maternal body (not exclusively 
the pregnant body); especially in works from the last 2 decades.

I would be very thankful for any hints!

Mei
