Women's Health on Film: A Conversation with Alison Ramsey

Ramsey is invited to reflect on their response to the cinematic premiere of the ground-breaking short, animated film Why Mums Don't Jump (2023) at La Femme International Film Festival 2023. Why Mums Don't Jump (2023) is a landmark film that depicts - for the first time - the lived experience of pelvic floor prolapse postpartum. Ramsey's own film Menopause: The Movie (dir. Ramsey) exposes the lack of historical data around the lived experience of menopause; using found footage to invite reflection on what those experiences may have been like. Ramsey's personal and filmmaking experience offer insights into the shared struggle for justice in women's health.
