Clotheslines Clotheslines

A cherished, sometimes comic memory with mothers, husbands, children, neighbours… CLOTHESLINES documents the pragmatic, symbolic and artistic role of laundry in women’s lives. The film presents an enduring, vivid account, showing how the creative energies of women have been sapped by mundane tasks, and in turn how such tasks reflect a ritualistic approach to life. Billed as a poetic documentary.
