About This Movie

Seven Women, Seven Sins is a fascinating anthology film that showcases the diverse perspectives of female filmmakers in the 80s.

Valie Export’s segment on Lust stands out with its raw energy and unabashed sensuality, while Chantal Akerman’s Sloth has a languid, almost hypnotic pace that invites reflection. The performances are strikingly authentic, each actress embodying their sin with a kind of intensity that feels both personal and universal. The overall tone is a blend of introspection and social commentary, making it a profound exploration of women's experiences and struggles. It’s not just about the sins; it’s about the human condition.
