This short film is a delight! Having lived through many decades of tampon and every other form of feminine hygiene product in television and print adds, watching Indian women (and men) shyly discussing menstruation is somehow heartwarming. At its core is the serious subject of the empowerment of women that is treated with a gentle but firm hand. Go see it!

As someone who was born in India and then adopted in the US, I found this short film very beautiful and inspiring. It is wonderful to see my culture and heritage on film; I loved how strong and empowered these women were on an issue seen as taboo in their country. These girls and women were dropping out of school because they didn't have the necessary supplies to help with their menstruation. I think that it is amazing that this pad machine was created, and that women are branding their own pads and making a difference within their community.
As a woman myself, I believe that this short film needs to be shown everywhere. It is a moving documentary about the power of change and hard work.

The story was very interesting and something I was not aware of at all. One choice the filmmakers made I could not get past. Why did they choose to dub the subjects? Every time that happened it took me out of the story.
Anyone else bothered by that or just me?
What an uplifting and inspiring film. It shows how little (the effort needed to buy the women's machine) goes so far for them, not at all challenging the Oakland school's effort... I hold them in very high regard for having a plan to improve the lives of others around the world and achieve it through sales of bicycles, kickstarters and yogathons. How imaginative it was. Today it not only makes the group more hygienic, it helps to provide some autonomy and increased self-worth for women (in a highly patriarchal society). I highly recommend taking 26min and watching this ... Children and teenagers in particular want to show them how much influence they have to improve.

- Citazioni
Arunachalam Muruganatham: The daughter never talks to the mother, the wife never talks to the husband. Friends don't talk to each other. Menstruation is the biggest taboo in my country.
