ELENA KHURTOVA - MOTHER'S MILK

Mothers Milk (re)constructs the story of Ilse, the authors grandmother. Alienated in the psychiatric hospital of La Timone, in Mar seille, Ilse resided there from 1952 until her death in 1983. Bringing together archival material, correspondences, and conversations narrated via documentary poetry, Marie Ilse Bourlanges assembles the fragments of a family history hiding in plain sight.
