Judy Versus Capitalism
Super-8, transfer DCP
Radical feminist, street fighter, practical dreamer. This lyrical documentary recounts Judy Rebick’s pivotal role in securing women’s rights over their own bodies in Canada. She lays out the key tenets of second wave feminism, even as a family time bomb threatens. The film closes with a harrowingly personal account of a divided self, and a startling embrace of mental illness as creativity.
