Chantal Birman, liberal midwife and feminist, has dedicated her life to defending women's rights. At almost 70 years old, she continues to visit those who have just given birth to provide them with care and advice. Between painful moments and intense joys, his visits offer a rare photograph of this delicate moment of returning home. Aude Pépin offers, through the portrait of this committed woman, a unique reflection on motherhood and more particularly on the post-partum period, and the upheaval that the birth of a child represents in the lives of the women she supports.
