Join us for the last chance to see award-winning documentary ‘Gentle, Angry Women’ in Cornwall. Produced by Cornish film company Awen Productions, the film explores the legacy of the Greenham Common Women’s Peace Protests and has just won the Celtic Media Festival Torc Award for History (Screen).
This special screening in Falmouth will be followed by a live Q&A with the film’s director Barbara Santi, delving deeper into the story behind the documentary.
Evie (19) from North Cornwall joins her peers Xanthe (17) and Poppy (16) on the 110-mile march to Greenham Common to uncover its lost legacy.
Along the way, they meet the Greenham Women who spent years at the peace camp, hearing their stories and prompting intergenerational conversations about the world today. The young women are passionate about a range of environmental and social justice issues, from Black Lives Matter, to climate change, women’s rights, and animal activism.
Gentle, Angry Women provides a platform for connection and dialogue concerning the key issues of our time and audiences have found the film to be an inspiring watch.
“A really humbling story of collective women’s activism and a roller coaster of emotions for the audience.”
“Powerful, poetic, and unapologetically bold.”
