RE: Memories of a Burning Body (2024): freedom, at last | la libertad, al fin [ENG | ESP]

How to understand puberty when the subject is not dealt with at home and at school it is discussed with modesty, as if it were something prohibited? How to deal with menstruation when the experience - the first fright, ignorance, fear - is accompanied by the silence of the elders? How to face falling in love, the desire for freedom, the sexual awakening, when one cannot talk about it because “it's not a lady's thing”? From where to get from the earliest childhood girls have been educated to become wives and housewives as their mothers were, passing from a male domination (the father and brothers) to another (the husband)?

Wow! These themes cover the experiences I had growing up. I was born in 1947. My mother was first generation US citizen, child of immigrant Sicilian parents.

...at school it is discussed with modesty... In my school it was not discussed at all. And it was not discussed at home, ever.

The first thing to catch my eyes in your review was the poster showing a mature woman's back. A real back, not an air-brushed back, or the back of a twenty-year-old.

I will surely catch this film if it is offered on streaming services available to me.
