The Season of Second Wave Feminism
11 September 2023
40-something housewife Joan has wild dreams that would make David Lynch proud. Sometimes it's difficult to tell when she's dreaming and when she's not because she seems to be spending her days in bed with valium now that her daughter is in college and her husband is perpetually on a "business trip."

After watching a slightly older friend drunkenly embarrass herself and cry about all of the things she wishes she were doing, Joan decides to take control of her middle aged life with a copy of the comically titled How to Be a Witch.

The Season of the Witch is a delightful tale of sexual liberation and killing your husband for the life insurance, accented with some of the best red wallpaper I've ever seen in my life. And watch out for the matching lamps with the boy and the girl, they're watching you summon Beelzebub.
