Documentaire extrêmement émouvant sur deux femmes qui se sont rencontrées à Ravensbrück le soir de Noël 1943.
L’une, Nelly, est belge, chanteuse d’opéra et résistante. L’autre, Nadine, est d’origine chinoise et belge, de parents diplomates et vit à Paris dans les salons lesbiens.
Elles se rencontrent dans le camp de Ravensbrück et tombent amoureuses. Elles ne se quitteront plus. Elle s’aident à vivre. À survivre.
Nelly est déplacée à Mauthausen en 1944 (on ne sait pas pourquoi) et les deux femmes sont séparées. Mais elles survivent miraculeusement et se retrouvent vers 1946. Comment? Le film n’apporte pas de réponse.
Elles vont ensuite vivre ensemble à Caracas au Vénézuela jusqu’à la mort de Nadine.
On a des lettres et un journal qu’elles ont écrit à deux mains (personne n’a jamais voulu le publier) ainsi que plusieurs petits films tournés par Nadine qui les montrent dans leur intérieur au Vénézuela, le tout conservé par la petite-fille de Nelly qui vit aujourd’hui dans le nord de la France.
C’est très émouvant mais triste aussi. Parce que ces deux femmes qui s’aimaient et ont vécu ensemble toute leur vie après la guerre n’ont jamais parlé de leur relation aux deux petites-filles de Nelly. La relation n’était pas évoquée en tant que telle.
On comprend à demi-mot que la fille de Nelly n’acceptait pas la relation de sa mère avec Nadine. Grosse homophobe donc. Et la petite-fille est clairement dans le déni vu le nombre de fois qu’elle parle d’ « amitié » pour décrire la relation de sa grand-mère avec Nadine.
Le mot « lesbienne » est prononcé une seule et unique fois par une autre lesbienne qui faisait partie du cercle de Nathalie Clifford Barney auquel appartenait également Nadine.
Bien sûr, il y a des traces de leur relation grâce aux écrits, photos et films mais il y a tout un pan de la vie de ces femmes qui est complètement passé à la trappe puisqu’elles ne pouvaient pas vivre complètement ouvertement.
Et puis il y a évidemment le tabou et le silence sur les camps de concentration. Personne ne voulait en entendre parler après-guerre. Donc c’est un double silence: silence sur l’homosexualité et silence sur les traumatismes du camp de concentration.
Et malgré tout ça, ces deux femmes ont survécu, ont construit une nouvelle vie ensemble, se sont aimées et sont enterrées dans le même cimetière à Bruxelles. Si ça n’est pas de la résilience.
J’aurais aimé qu’on en sache un peu plus sur Nadine. Sa famille, ses parents. Mais le film nous en dit peu.

A film that is a documentary/video essay:
I’m gonna go with a favorite from outfest a few years ago that I just saw is on Amazon prime. Called “Nelly & Nadine.” It’s a true story about two women and their love that survived WW2 and beyond.

Hi, I just had a quick look and I don't think you've done Nelly Mousset-Vos and Nadine Hwang yet? They were a couple who met in a concentration camp during ww2 and lived together afterwards until Nadine's death in 1972. I just saw the documentary about them (Nelly and Nadine) and I think you guys would love these two. Nadine was also the past lover of a woman called Natalie Barney, who lived in Venezuela and who sounds fascinating also. If you have any trouble with translating the French, I volunteer my services!
Hello - thank you for the message! You're right, we haven't done anything on Nelly and Nadine yet - I'm aware of the doco but I haven't got around to watching it. I also have a biography of Natalie Barney on my shelf waiting to be read.
And thank you for the translation offer - we will keep it in mind.
-Alice

So you mentioned queer film and docs in some of your tags, may I ask if you have any specific recommendations?
thank u for asking i have SO MANY!!!!!!!!!!
i haven't actually checked but im 99% sure all of these films were definitely directed and likely also written by queer people; for context this top list is all new so look for film festivals that might be screening or streaming these virtually / below i added some older films that are more easy to find
New from the past year or two:
the one i mentioned in the post is one i definitely recommend - it's called Nelly & Nadine (doc) - two women fall in love in a concentration camp, survive, and live happily together - the documentary gets made when a queer grandkid finds old stuff and is like hrmmmm
Rule 34 - one of my favorite films ever honestly - a black sex worker (in brazil) gets into criminal law school (paid for by her sex work) and witnesses her own life and identity being constantly debated in the classroom while continuing her sex work and beginning to explore BDSM at night - she becomes increasingly erratic throughout the film in a way that culminates beautifully (talk about a chaos queer) an incredibly commentary on women's agency
Before I Change My Mind - i think it takes place in the 60s - a non-binary pre-teen kid moves from america to a small canadian town and struggles to make friends for .02 seconds before they set their sights on their crush and become a member of their toxic friend group - puts a whole new spin on 'coming of age'
Compulsus - a woman starts hunting down men who sexually assault women (from the descrip it says it never shows the actual assault that leads her to start striking back, only her committing violence)
Tahara - first of all the stop motion kiss scene still has me reeling. two jewish bffs attend a funeral and things get real awkward when they kiss 'for fun'
Framing Agnes (doc) - gender case studies from a 50's UCLA clinic are re-enacted by icons like Angelica Ross - incredible history
Wildhood - a two-spirit teen falls for another indigenous boy while he journeys with his brother to find their mom
Anything's Possible - Billy Porter's directorial debut - a muslim boy falls for a trans girl and takes his shot even though he knows people will freak out (and they do) but it's really affirming and supportive and lovely and funny <3
Esther Newton Made Me Gay (doc) - ok wanna talk about queer history?? Esther Newton was the first person to ever write about drag culture from an anthropological perspective PERIOD. i think if i remember correctly she was fired from parsons, and was on very thin ice for a long time with her career - but even still she wrote and paved the way for queer academia - writing about fire island, cherry grove, the drag scene, and more!!!!! she also identifies as a butch lesbian/between genders and this film is so incredible for the lesbians - you really need to hear her talk about gender, about butchness and femmeness - ALSO you get to see her childhood growing up in the early 1900's as a queer person and it's incredible, you'll cry but like in a GOOD cathartic way
Sleep With Me (series) - a soapy sapphic thai romance between two disabled women - one in a wheelchair and another with a rare sleep disorder. this will literally give you every cute soapy sapphic moment you could ask for!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Girl Picture - lesbians watch this one!!!!!!!! this is a ROMANCE!!!!!! there were scenes where i was like omg!!!!!!! when you never realize how desperately ur craving a certain style - just watch the trailer please ; also asexuals u should watch this one too :) (just to be clear though the asexual character is straight, not the sapphic romance)
Mama Bears (doc) - this doc will also make u cry but in a really fucking good way. this is a doc on christian parents who used to be conservative and homophobic before changing perspectives after their kids come out. most notable is Kai (though she also chooses the name Esther for herself <3, based on her favorite person in the Bible), a trans girl who talks about coming out to her mom as a girl as young as 3 years old, and in spite of the abuse she was put through, she kept saying it and her mom eventually realized she could either lose her "son" forever, or accept and love her daughter. im tearing up writing this - her mom gave up her entire family to literally save her daughters life - and she did.
Nana's Boys - two black men are about to get engaged when the city goes on lockdown and their relationship is put to the test - truths come out and the gorgeous twists and turns of their relationship really shows the gentleness and supportiveness of queer relationships (it's called nana's boys because they were both raised by their grandmas <3)
Unidentified Objects - a lovely film about two neighbors who take an unexpected road trip - their lives of course changing forever as a result. one of the characters is a gay little person who's mourning the death of a close friend and the other is a sex worker who is looking for the aliens who took her when she was a kid (yes that's literally the plot) it's wonderfully well written and has one of those endings that'll send you reeling
New - haven't seen but on my list:
The First Fallen - a narrative story that follows a group a friends as the first wave of the AIDS epidemic approaches in Peru <3
All the Beauty and the Bloodshed (doc) - you'll likely hear about this as its Laura Poitras' new film, it's about Nan Goldin
Stupid for You - a sapphic girl musical????????????????????
Way Down - an episodic on a bunch of friends trying to be musicians - the lead is non-binary in a romance with various ladies and i think everyone else in the band is queer too
The Blue Caftan - a tailor in morocco lives happily closeted with his wife until they hire a sexy assistant
The Inspection - a gay man enters the military and finds unexpected support and family
El Houb - can only remember that it's a muslim guy who comes out to his dad but is a dark comedy (he literally runs into the closet at a point in the film)
My Emptiness and I - a newly out transfemme woman navigates life and dating and surgery
Moneyboys - two gay men in i think taiwan?
so in general i highly recommend paying attention to queer film festivals - newfest, frameline, and outfest are the major US ones (they only stream in the US but im pretty sure you can use a vpn) inside out is a canadian one; most of them stream now!!!! like 80% of their films are available to stream for a short duration so sign up for their email lists and mark their festivals on your calendars because if you pay attention to these you'll start to see actual queer stories written and directed by queer people!!!!!!!!
also consider watching shorts programs - some of the most impactful films ive been seeing have been shorts (there's one called Dress Up that has been glued into the back of my skull for like 2 months) and shorts are basically seeing into the future of queer film and a lot of them are amazing so highly recommend!!!!!!!
