10/10/2020 Such a masterclass in being free of constraints and rules, and following your muse and its best friend the id into essential engagement with actors and the stage. María Irene Fornés seems to breeze right past the inner censor every moment of her creative life, and it is evident from this rough-cut-but-loving film how purely alive she was. Toward the end when filmmaker Michelle Memran speaks of being truly present to and with another person, it seems that Fornés whole journey is about that kind of immediate presence. It's not about worrying what the audience will say or what your relatives will think, but just expressing your unfiltered observations and intrigues. A dialogue about being openly lesbian in Cuba (whether a memory of the past or any reflection of the present day isn't clear) and why she left captures the perplexity of a woman who wouldn't know how to be anyone but who she is. Must, must see. See more Read all reviews
