    One Sings, the Other Doesn't

    Varda views life through such a whimsical lens that makes her work such a joy to watch and always leaves me with a vigor for life and passion for humanity.

    That being said, there is a strong element of Orientalism and bourgeois white feminism that was hard to ignore, antithetical to the message she’s trying to convey. Still, I will always cherish stories about womanhood and motherhood and the beautiful endurance of female friendship.
