March 8, 2022. The world rises up to speak out against macho violence. In Mexico, a remarkable group of women comes together to tell their story: in the late 1970s, they founded the Colectivo Cine Mujer, producing films for a decade with a bold stance of political activism.
They forged a feminist cinema grounded not only in theory but also in intuition - many making their debut as filmmakers while simultaneously discovering the power and awareness of their own womanhood.
Shaped by the revolutionary spirit of 1968 and the surge of second-wave feminism, these pioneers confronted issues that, nearly fifty years later, remain painfully relevant.
Through their films, they invite us to reflect on the challenges women still face today, creating a dialogue across generations. Their work bridges the past and the present, revealing the courage, creativity, and resilience of women who dared to make their voices - and their vision - heard.
