She's Beautiful When She's Angry

SHE'S BEAUTIFUL WHEN SHE'S ANGRY is the provocative, rousing and often humorous account of the birth of the women's liberation movement in the late 1960s through to its contemporary manifestations in the new millennium, direct from the women who lived it. Combining never-before-seen archival footage, a classic soundtrack of the era and first-person stories of the protests, poetry slams and community meetings that engineered meaningful social change, the film embraces the grassroots movement that proclaimed "the personal is political" and the women who dared to get furious about it.

Despite episodes of internal discord, including challenges to leadership and disparity of focus, the movement nevertheless became the voice for the many strands feminism, from the particular demands of women of color to the struggles over issues of class and lesbian rights. An essential chronicle of the movement that elevated women out of their second-class status, SHE'S BEAUTIFUL... champions the brilliant women at the forefront of the seismic changes of the time as well as those who continue to bang the drum of equality today.
