La primera mujer (2021) : distribution, intrigue et streaming

Released in 2021, La primera mujer is a documentaire film directed by Miguel Eek, running about 76 minutes. “Eva has two dreams: leaving the psychiatric hospital in search of a “normal” life and to reunite with her son after 15 years.” — that tagline sets the tone.

What it’s about. Eva’s being allowed to leave the psychiatric institution she’s lived in for six years. After a long year of waiting, the news arrive: an assisted living residence is found for her. Eva takes the first steps towards the "normal" life she longs for: to find a job, earn an income of her own, visit her mother... even find love. While she’s taking stock of her past and works on her self-confidence as well as her trust in the outside world, she also fixes firmly on her main goal: to reconnect with the son she lost custody of 20 years ago and ask him to forgive her. The First Woman is a film about second chances, the search for "normality" and the borderline between lucidity and darkness.
