Love and Words Are Politics
Love and Words Are Politics Synopsis
Unwittingly (and politically), this film ends up being self-reflective. The French filmmaker Sylvie Ballyot was shooting a feminist documentary in Yemen when her tapes were requisitioned by the authorities. Adrift in unknown territory with the only help of a translator, Ballyot carried on, shooting images of herself in public spaces –the only woman in a crowd of men. Her reactions in a culture she is not familiar with get combined with interviews with students who talk about love, family, and sexuality.
Love and Words Are Politics is a documentary film directed by Sylvie Ballyot with a runtime of 44m. It stars Sylvie Ballyot.
