A Part of Me

André Roy
2016 | 23 min
A Part of Me addresses a little-known topic: hair loss in women. The documentary focuses on Karène, the director’s wife, who suffers from alopecia and is ready to do anything to regain her self-confidence. Centering on the testimonies of Madeleine, 17, Jenny, 30, and Marie-Claire, 60, the film questions the concept of beauty by plunging into the daily lives of women from different generations.
