Reviews
“Excelling in a more inward, sober role than usual, van Monique van de Ven plays an Amsterdam housewife whose horizons have never been expanded beyond her home and family until she meets commune hippie Maria Schneider on a brief vacation in the South of France.” – Variety
“Dutch filmmaker Nouchka van Brakel’s A WOMAN LIKE EVE is a well-told drama that involves into a potent defense of the rights of lesbian mothers.” – Los Angeles Times
