Director: C Von Alemann (1980), Length: 1hr 50mins
Claudia von Alemann's feature-length film, BLIND SPOT, is about an

socialist and feminist rarely mentioned in conventional history books.
Guest Speaker: Professor Marie Cross (Newcastle University). Professor
Cross is the leading scholar of Flora Tristan studies. With the first
annotated translation of Tristan's journal and the first book ever
published on her correspondence, she has published and presented
papers in French History and in Gender Studies in a wide international
community.

Gender Research Group at Newcastle University.
