ESCAPE


A documentary film project written and directed by Valérie Mitteaux. With development support from Procirep, Angoa, and Montpellier Méditerranée Métropole.


Escape

Getaway, flight; free but confined space, open to view and light.

A person who has fled from a place where they were being held; an escapee.

To escape

The act of escaping, fleeing.


Antonym: to obey, to surrender, to submit, to follow.

After intimacy with men, more and more women are deciding to live in homosexual relationships. Between irrepressible impulse, rational decision and ultimate solution, I wonder what this wave is based on, and how escaping the norm influences these adventurers. By gathering their experiences, I want to understand how this shift now colours their lives and their relationship with masculinity. In this reality, which is still unfriendly to minorities and women, a reality that continues to brandish male domination as the only model, we move forward in solidarity.
