The Good Breast
Streaming video - 2016
THE GOOD BREAST blends archival medical films and the history of the mastectomy since William S. Halsted with the surprising journey taken by Dr. Schnaper and her partner to Catania, Sicily, to experience Saint Agatha, the annual festival of the breast and third largest such celebration in the world. Their discoveries reveal surprising connections between contemporary American culture of the mastectomy and this ancient veneration of the breast.
