Publication Info New York, NY : Filmakers Library, 2010.



Descript 1 online resource (45 min.)
004444
Note Feminism. Does the word have any meaning today? Has it become tainted with connotations that alienate some women? Or is it simply irrelevant in the 21st century? Today in North America, women make up half the work force and more than half of all university students. But according to the UN, they own only 1 percent of the world's wealth despite comprising 53 percent of the population. And in Canada, they're badly outnumbered on corporate boards and in Parliament. Even so, young women often shun identifying with the 'F' word. In this timely documentary, the story of feminism and its continuing uphill battle is told through interviews with some of the best-known feminist icons along with younger voices who are finding new ways to advance the cause.
