MENSCHENFRAUEN Through the interrelated story of four women and their relationships with philanderer <\/b>Franz, Menschenfrauen<\/i> (literally translated as \u2018Human Women\u2019) explores the women\u2019s place in a man\u2019s world and the double standards that are perpetuated <\/b>by society. Whilst the film has a strong narrative drive, it is laced with formal and visual experimentation, and the dark humour does little to diminish the harsh feminist stance. Elisabeth, a self-sacrificing mother, is betrayed by an unappreciative son and abusive partner. Anna and Petra, both pregnant by Franz, turn to each other for affection and support, <\/b>whilst Gertrude is driven to take more decisive action. <\/b><\/p>\n Valie Export, Menschenfrauen, Austria, 1980, 100 mins<\/strong> Also screening: Tuesday 19 October 2004, at 8:40pm<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" MENSCHENFRAUEN Friday 15 October 2004, at 6:20pm London National Film Theatre NFT2 Through the interrelated story of four women and their relationships with philanderer Franz, Menschenfrauen (literally translated as \u2018Human Women\u2019) explores the women\u2019s place in a man\u2019s world and the double standards that are perpetuated by society.
