Synopsis "Women Can Fly"
I predict a time, not so far, when man, travelling on a flying machine will be able to reach every place in the world with less effort and the highest pleasure in seeing things from above, which is the closest point of view to that of our Creator.It is a new era. Today is the beginning of a new era.These are the words of the journalist Harriet Quimby in the presence of the most sensational invention of the modern era: the aircraft.And just the flying machine becomes the tool to overcome a big taboo: women can fly!Elyse De Laroche, Harriet Quimby herself, Matilde Moisant, Hélène Dutrieu, Adrienne Bolland, Ruth Elder, Amelia Earhart...Women with a great passion, a great desire to conquer freedom, love and respect. Women capable of flying, at the controls of an aircraft, but also handling a camera. Women who make others fly, with their voice and their songs. Women with their fragility, their limits, but also facing the many limitations imposed by conventions, rules, laws.The petit Bessie Coleman, who will become the first African American female pilot, stands above all. How much tenacity, how much unbeatable optimism, how much courage she showed in achieving such a goal!The courage of women.
