Our Body (2023)
OUR BODY opens Aug 4 at Film Forum with director Claire Simon in person Thursday and Friday.

French documentary titan Claire Simon observes the everyday operations of the gynecological ward in a public hospital in Paris. In the process, she questions what it means to live in a woman's body, filming the diversity, singularity and beauty of patients in all stages of life. Through these many encounters, the specific fears, desires and struggles of these individuals become the health challenges we all face, even the filmmaker herself.

    Worthwhile Documentary to Watch

    This was a really great documentary of health care workers and their patients in a gynecology hospital during Covid as they dealt with abortion, gender transition, help with pregnancy, IVF, natural childbirth, cesarian birth of twins, ovarian cancer, breast cancer, and menopause, among other things.

    The part about IVF was particularly enlightening to me, and the births were very emotional, as was the last segment in the film about a different subject.

    Several doctors are followed through multiple patients, and at the end of the film the narration expounds that each patient has only one story, omitting the fact that each doctor and nurse has multiple patients day after day, making them true heroes.

    Available now (March 2024) on CriterionChannel, I recommend this highly.
