Siri Hustvedt - Dance around the Self plot

The film portrays Siri Hustvedt, a prominent author and scholar who embodies female empowerment. It explores her openness to bodily vulnerability and her in-depth study of the centuries-old stigmatization of so-called "hysterical" women. Through a personal and intellectual lens, the film illuminates her struggle against prejudice, her exploration of gender and illness, and her courage to break societal taboos.
