Show Description:
It’s 402 BC, a woman lies in bed writhing in pain. She feels something vicious inside her. It bites and scratches at her insides, begging to be released. Now, in the present day, a woman mirrors these same struggles. We seek to uncover women’s stories hidden under the foundation of the patriarchy.
