In the first quarter of the 20th century, Paris was the undisputed cultural capital of the world. It was also the meeting place for a new generation of independent women, who flocked to the West Bank and made it their home. Together, they created a now legendary community of respected artists: authors Colette, Djuna Barnes and Gertrude Stein; painters Romaine Brookes and Marie Laurencin; photographers Bernice Abbott and Gilsele Freund; publishers Sylvia Beach and Adrienne Monnier; and journalist Janet Flanner.
Using groundbreaking research and recently uncovered home movies combined with other visual sources, this intimate documentary entwines interviews and anecdotes to recreate the ambience of an exceptional group of women in Paris during its most magical era.
