Single, 40-ish and fabulous, filmmaker Jennifer Fox lives, loves and works as she pleases. But when personal crises hit, she turns the camera on herself to investigate whether or not a woman can truly be "free." This candid and totally addictive six-part docu-series offers an original look at the modern female life. Shot over three years and 17 countries, Fox collects frank conversations with women from across the globe. By "passing the camera" between women, she creates a dialogue that exposes their secret language and the truths that only passes between sisters. Honest discussions of masturbation, motherhood, repression, orgasm, abuse and alimony expose cultural differences that are seldom seen or spoken about. First and Third Worlds are contrasted, the constant being the vivid female experience. By weaving her own romantic, sexual and professional adventures with those of the world's women, Fox fashions a powerful, first-person commentary on the contemporary female condition. Part soap opera, part sociopolitical investigation, Flying is an authentic peek at the drama of daily life and the realizations that can be achieved with the courage of examination.
