I was lucky enough to see this film a few weeks ago; it is truly extraordinary. There is a very moving interview with the sons of one of the artists; wise young men who know how important the work of their mother is, even though she had to go through nasty custody battles because of being "just" an artist. The film is a beautiful testimonial to the imperative to make art, and the special obstacles that women face, especially if they have children.
