I know what you’re saying and I did recognise that this was what was good about the film. In this day and she however I can’t see that a documentary couldn’t be made with the focus upon her as much as it is upon the men.

But this is Netflix.
Will a documentary go into her unable to have children, the church banning her, her own mother cutting her off. The women who took part?

.....and I guess the fact that Jean died a long time ago and no doubt so have the women who took part in the initial trials have done too ,a film using actresses is the only way to do it, only just thought of that. I'd imagine there's plenty of footage of the guys involved in all this knocking around in the archives.
How'dya fancy a 2017 / 18 offering. With a rambling intro?
On Youtube, I saw a suggestion of a 5 min video from 2017, of a child on Ukraine's got talent. Quite the powerful performance, (with subs.) So, when I'd finished seeing it and another of him in the same show, a film appeared 'at the side'. So, I clicked on it out of curiosity. Same kid, film being 'Tum Pabi Tum'. (Belarusian) I found it with English subtitles. I presume it is a kid's film, but I'm a child so I don't care
But that aside, it's about an orphan who is fed up of being ignored because he's too 'old'. So he decides to make a video 'advertising' himself so 'he' can choose the family instead of waiting, all whilst trying to get a small girl adopted because she was 'sent back' because (I think) she was ill.
