Overview
"Barriers" is a documentary in which three women over 60 and a group of young women participate in a game that exposes the prejudices surrounding sexuality in later life. Through these letters, the young women ask the older women about their intimate lives. This creates a space that sheds light on both the taboos and the discomfort that persist around the topic. A space open to silence and deep conversations. At the same time, we discover the stories that characterize these social figures.
