Agricultural and rural women

Women in the countryside were quick when it came to using moving images for representing themselves and their work in the public sphere. From the 1920s onwards, women's associations, female students of agricultural colleges and individual farm women (i.e. Bäuerinnen or paysannes) commissioned film makers in order to illustrate their multifarious activities on farms, in the farm kitchen, in educational institutions or in the public sphere.
