A large Flocati rug, some exotic plants – Lovisa Ósk Gunnarsdóttir appears to be standing in a cosy living room. In a relaxed atmosphere, she sparks a conversation about one of the last taboos of our time - menopause - and about aging. She immediately gets personal: after an injury in her early 40s, Lovísa was forced to rethink her relationship with dance and her body. This process opened her eyes to the silence around menopause and her own lack of knowledge on the subject. She began researching and published an open call on the internet in Iceland, inviting women to participate in her project. With sensitivity, empathy, and humour, When the Bleeding Stops invites the audience to dive deep into the many layers of the female experience related to menopause and to laugh, cry, and celebrate with these women.
