As part of the Reflets du cinéma Hispanique festival
Mémoires d'un corps brûlant is the conversation I never had with my grandmothers. It is the collective cry of women who break taboos and dare to talk about their most intimate secrets.
Ana is at the age when you can finally live for yourself. After so many years under the yoke of her father, brother and husband, she is living her true youth, blossoming into a femininity that is finally liberated. She takes us from one era to another, evoking the memories of a life of taboos, guilt and secret desires.
This is the testimony of an older woman liberated from all male power, who reveals her sexuality, past and present. In the course of the story, images emerge from the past... Direct but never vulgar, the film's staging is extremely sensitive. A must-see. - Atmosphères 53.
-Cinéville, Laval
