Nothing a Little Soap and Water Can’t Fix (9:17)
Directed by Jennifer Proctor, US, 2017
In films, as in life, the bathtub represents a private space for
women - a place not only to groom, but to relax, to think, to
be alone, to find sanctuary. For Hollywood, though, it's also a
place of naked vulnerability, where women narratively placed
in harm's way have no escape. Using appropriated movies,
this experimental found footage work deconstructs the
representations of women in this domestic space as
historically framed in popular film.
