Feminists: Ritratti di un'epoca

This film requires no direction and no script. Women tell the stories that happened to them as they were growing up and what is happening currently. This is a documentary about women by women and it is what is it. There is no contradicting what happened to these people and the stories speak for themselves. Women are not yet equal in society and it used to be even worse. Despite the progress the fight needs to continue because of the attitudes towards women expressed in the film and the very reviews from this website.

This happened! This is happening! Women have not been able to vote for 100 years!

This documentary is a sentimental and almost poetic portrayal of the experiences of women from different backgrounds. Gave it 8/10 because it lacks a bit the "documentary" style but I guess the aim was not to depict history, rather giving a glimpse of the moment these women shared in the 70s.

I believe the comparison with the Red Pill is wrong, as this documentary is not focused on an issue that needs to be debated or a phenomenon to be analysed, as opposed to Jaye's. Also, to those asking more self-reflection like Cassie Jaye did, a journalist or documentary maker should not appear on camera. The topic is the protagonist of the documentary, not the filmmaker.

..and a very sad male/female ratings ratio. Over a quarter of men who voted gave it 1 star. 1 star! Unfortunately this is not surprising, still disappointing though. The title of this documentary can be interpreted literally: it shows stories of 2nd wave feminists who talk about their experiences as women, feminists, activists, they also cover a bit of general history of their times. The documentary doesn't cover all feminists nor the history of feminism as a whole, it would be a much longer movie. But it's still an important part of history that should be widely watched and discussed as any other history documentary would be.

This was an excellent documentary that provided an insider's look and a rare opportunity to hear from female Artists, Activists and leaders of the feminist movement of the 70s.

Don't let the bad reviews deter you from watching - they were probably written by angry dudes!

I feel empowered and motivated after watching this film and it's a must watch for any girl and woman today!!

Loved this! The only thing that is missing is - more! I wanted this documentary to be longer, to be a series, to hear more stories from the women in the documentary and others! Please make more of this!
