This film was conceived after the research project ‘Women’s Remembering of Life in Socialism’, started in 1999 by a group of women scientists, students, and lecturers at the Centre for Women’s Studies in Zagreb. In the film we meet five women who openly and bravely speak of their efforts, successes, defeats, and joys that they experienced whilst living in socialist Yugoslavia. The overlapping of the places of female identity with the key determinants of the socialist period makes up the basis of the film, showing the emancipatory values as well as the oppressive elements and the everyday problems of a time.
