Overview

The documentary combines archival material with contemporary stories, juxtaposing scenes from the 1967 Royal Commission on the Status of Women with the 2nd Pan-Canadian Young Feminist Gathering in 2011 in Winnipeg, organized by the rebELLEs movement. It explores the progress made on concerns raised 45 years ago: universal childcare, violence against women and abortion access.
