Citation :
« De mère en fille is structured as a physical and mental movement of the central woman into maternity and its imaginary, domestic, and cultural contradictions. This movement is marked by studied images of her caressing her pregnant body, stationed before a mirror to absorb this pleasure; intimate scenes of her husband kissing her belly and their love making; the paranoia of a fantasy of entrapment on a beach; the solitariness of another woman's Caesarean section; and the mind-numbing routines of motherhood. »
-- Joan Nicks
