The Good Breast
Four strikingly different women undergo treatment at a comprehensive breast center presided over by the inimitable and searingly honest veteran surgeon Dr. Lauren Schnaper. She believes that fear, ignorance, and pink-ribbon culture are fueling an explosive rate of unnecessary mastectomies in America. Blending medical archival footage with extensive 'collateral damage' suffered by our four women - repeated loss of implants, blood infections caused by multiple surgical procedures, cosmetic nipple exchanges, reactions to cadaver's skin that is used to house breast implants - we learn that breast reconstruction post-mastectomy is no 'boob job.' As Dr. Schnaper advocates breast conservation and debunks breast cancer myths, so the myth of St. Agatha, the Sicilian martyred saint of the breast, offers a commentary on our own confused contemporary moment.

The female breast is an image charged with layers of meaning. It is seen as an erotic object that is then transformed into an object of torture and revenge. A survival object transformed into a commodity. The breast has been used by women as a form of feminine protest in the stories of Nangeli – who chopped off her breasts to fight the ‘Breast Tax’ (mulakarram) and consequently assumed an almost goddess like stature, like Kannagi, who hurled her left breast at the city of Madurai as a curse thereby setting it ablaze.

The Breast Archives
As women, our relationships with our breasts profoundly influence our lives and identities, yet we don't talk about them. What would happen if we did? In this film, nine women find out. The Breast Archives reveals the inner thoughts, emotions, and pivotal experiences of women ranging widely in ethnicity, age, socio-economic background, and breast size. In an intimate setting, they candidly reveal their deeply personal memories of puberty, shaming, sexual pleasure, nursing, and breast cancer. They admit to their mixed emotions and contradictory beliefs, questioning their culture and themselves. Courageously vulnerable, they explore how they have assessed their breasts and tied those judgments to their self-worth, and they begin to find their own inner wisdom. In a profound act of self-revelation, they bare their breasts to the camera, inviting the audience to accept their naked, imperfect truth.
