Alice Winocour's Couture is a backstage film about the fashion world — less about the clothes than the bodies who wear them, shape them, and photograph them. It's a film about the ways that commerce and fashion (and medicine) shape and damage women's bodies.
As a Winocour fan and researcher since 2015, Alex Heeney connects Couture to Winocour's explorations of traumatized bodies, outsiders, and backstage stories throughout her body of work.
🎟 If you want to explore a film together in conversation — not just listen in — join me for Living Out Loud, my free Queer and Trans Storytelling Summit happening the first weekend of October.
On Day 3, I'll be hosting a short film screening and live group discussion — and you're invited.
