More Detail:

ANTONIA’S LINE tells the story of a woman Antonia and her daughter Daniele who returns to Antonia’s village in the Dutch countryside just after World War II. They stay on the family farm, and Antonia re-establishes herself in the village of her birth. A local widowed farmer, Bas, sets his eye on Antonia, but his marriage proposal is turned down. In time, Danielle wants a child, and mother and daughter seek out a man to impregnate Danielle. As the seasons grow and change, Danielle bears a daughter Therese. Therese is a child prodigy in mathematics and music, who much later gives birth to Sarah. The farm is now a busy, thriving place with four generations of women. The story starts and ends with Antonia’s death, revealing her life and the life of the generations that follow.

Basically a story of generational growth, ANTONIA’s LINE is a definite emphasis on feminism. Men in this film are either friendly shadows or brutes. Besides this overpowering feminist theme, sub-plots of rage, murder and suicide are included. The film mocks and rejects Christianity, making intellect a preferred choice and revealing the village minister as a coward. The story is irreverent and irreligious. Themes of lesbianism and promiscuity and numerous explicit, sexual and full nudity segments further add to the undesirability of this film.
