Abstract

ABSTRACTTaking into consideration montage and feminist film theories to study the role of narration and representation of women's identity in the documentaries Un'ora sola ti vorrei/For One More Hour With You (Marazzi, 2002) and Vogliamo anche le rose/We Want Roses Too (Marazzi, 2007), this review article explores the employment of personal narrations to determine political stances within feminist discourse. Using montage to underline meta-filmic and meta-narrative components, Marazzi questions the image of the archetypal Woman in patriarchal tradition, contrasting it with women as historical subjects. At the same time, the documentaries offer a meditation on women's desire, identity, subjectivity, depression, sexuality, and the women's liberation movement at large. Encompassing both personal and social-political commentary through innovative filmic language, Marazzi's documentaries, contribute to redefining women's identity in contrast to mainstream representations.
