In Cornouaille, the women, who use to be separated from their men at sea for long weeks at a time, would run life on land, in a quasi-matriarchal society.

Although times have changed, the women here have kept their singular independence and strength. Scarlette Le Corre, is one such woman. She is one of the only fisherwomen in Europe, and a real local star in the commune of Guilvinec. Along with Alexia, one of the last women to wear the Bigouden headdress, François is about to celebrate the 87th birthday of another Bigouden woman, Anna, who is a veritable living memory of the region.
