Feminists: What Were They Thinking?: Documentary screening with FREE popcorn

Join us in celebrating International Women's Day! 

 

We will be watching Feminists –What Were They Thinking?  A documentary that looks at the role of feminism through different stories and footage of commercials, memes and movies. 

More than a look back at the past, Feminists –What Were They Thinking? catapults the conversation into the present by contrasting the women’s personal stories with a sweeping range of historical and contemporary footage. News clips, beauty commercials, Internet memes, movies, TV shows and YouTube videos play off the women’s stories to create a dialogue with current culture. No subject is off-limits, including the women’s movement itself, which is examined through the lens of intersectionality. In this way Feminists –What Were They Thinking? departs from traditional linear storytelling and becomes an immersive, organic experience that pushes, provokes and prods.

 

 

This is a completely free event, please secure your space by booking in, as spaces are limited! We will be having FREE popcorn too!
