As we move about our lives, our bodies are constantly changing, evolving with each new experience and passing day; we’re no longer the person we were five or ten years ago, despite occupying the same vessel. Each wrinkle, ache, and alteration we make to our bodies is a tale worth telling. Embrace your ever-changing body and inner storyteller with this intimate programme of films opening up the discussion about exploring gender and sexuality, the untold sacrifices of motherhood, our different abilities and disabilities, and how we as humans are continuing to advance with the constant rise of technology.
