WA Museum Boola Bardip and Revelation Film Festival present: ~ Terra Femme by Courtney Stephens ~
Using archive footage and home movies, Terra Femme examines the history and experiences of women travelers — from women psychics called upon to search for missing explorers, to those women who travelled to foreign lands, competed in cross-continent car travel, becoming travelers, tourists, explorers and ethnographic filmmakers.
Terra Femme examines the often unknown stories of these women and their voyages, searching through old films and archives to understand these tourers and their movements, exploring and speculating on what these women saw and the wider sense of the traveler's gaze manifested in the archival material.
A beautifully realised essay film, fascinating and illuminating.
