My Love Affair with Marriage

From an early age, through song and fairytales, Zelma has learned that love will be the solution to all her problems, well as long as she fulfills the social expectation of young women. As her yearning for love and acceptance grows, her body seems to further resist them. Haunted by three mythological sirens, Zelma embarks on a 23-year quest, through several relationships and continents, for that elusive true love. With animation and music, dry humor, sharpness, and alluring candor, Signe Baumane explores notions of love, sex, romance, gender roles, expectations, and the human need to find that which makes us complete.
