ALL ABOUT MY BODY HAIR

Society puts enormous pressure on women to conform to certain standards of beauty. Yet every body is different. What is truly “normal”, and who decides this? Female body hair in particular is as much of a taboo as ever, but a new self-confidence is arising. In this experimental documentary, women reflect on their complex relationship with their body hair.



  • Duration: 8 min.
