Witch Madness
Skip to sidebar
Contrasting the mythic and global reverence for women as goddesses with the brutal reality of witch hunts from the 15th through 18th centuries, Witch Madness gives a visual overview of the pervasive and irrational persecution women have had to face. Co-animated with her daughter Emily as a kind of modernist fairy-tale, Faith Hubley’s film also imagines an alternate vision of women as cherished creators.
