Aroview: Capturing a distinct ambience of early 20th century Paris, this feminist-orientated look at American-Parisians such as Gertrude Stein, Alice B Toklas, Sylvia Beach and Djuna Barnes reveals the Left-Bank as a vibrant safe-haven of eccentricity. Containing rare footage and voice recordings, one also catches glimpses of other famous modernist figures such as Paul Valery, James Joyce and Ernest Hemingway.
