The Housewife The Housewife, Cathy Bennett, provided by the National Film Board of Canada Cathy Bennett1975 | 6 min This study, in film animation, is of a day in the life of a housewife, described without words, with a minimum of detail, but with a perception all the more pertinent because of the simplicity of presentation. The film makes no judgments. It simply states the case, but serves as an apt starting point for any discussion of the role of women and the value of their work.
