Brazen Hussies

Brilliant documentary exploring the history of Australia’s women’s liberation movement between 1965-1975, during the second wave feminist movement.

BRAZEN HUSSIES shows us how a daring and diverse group of women joined forces to defy the status quo, demand equality and create profound social change - contributing to one of the greatest social movements of the 20th Century. The film interweaves freshly uncovered archival footage, personal photographs, memorabilia and lively accounts from the bold women who reignited the feminist movement in Australia, at times at great personal cost.

“Traversing the rise of second-wave feminism, Catherine Dwyer’s documentary is an important contribution to an overlooked past.” ~ The Guardian.
