There is a distinct feminist and political notion in Yvonne Rainer’s films: the psychology of political radicalism, the progressive-academic rituals of discourse, relationship problems and problems of aging are put up for discussion. The films have a precise political language that originates from everyday language, veiling its high theoretical value.
