What happens

«Я и лошадь, я и бык, я и баба, и мужик» (англ. I Am An Ox, I Am A Horse, I Am A Man, I Am A Woman) — британский документальный фильм о женщинах в советском кино, срежиссированный Салли Поттер и выпущенный в 1987 году. Фильм основан на интервью с советскими кинематографистками: режиссёрами Ланой Гогоберидзе (Грузия) и Кирой Муратовой (Украина), российскими актрисами Инной Чуриковой, Нонной Мордюковой, сценаристкой Натальей Рязанцевой и кинокритиком Майей Туровской. Эти беседы Поттер провела в ходе своего визита в СССР в 1985 году. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
