SISTERS!

USA 1973 | Director, Production, Editor: Barbara Hammer | Colour | 16mm | 8 min | english OV | Lightcone

SISTERS! is a euphoric contemporary document of gay liberation that Hammer signed with her pseudonym Agressa (scratched into the emulsion): “It’s about women taking over the world: women driving trucks, changing Volkswagen engines, and leading the police in new revolutions! It also has footage of women topless, dancing, sweating – with babies on their shoulders! – to the music of the Family of Woman band at the second National Lesbian Conference that took place at UCLA, where Audre Lorde and Kate Millett spoke.” (Barbara Hammer)
