Filmmaker Irene Lusztig invites a variety of women to discover, embody, and discuss a fascinating archive: unpublished letters sent in the 1970s to the editor of Ms. Magazine, America’s first mainstream feminist publication. From personal accounts of harassment, discrimination, sex work, and mastectomy, to larger calls for political action, these letters find new meaning in the aftermath of Trump’s election and the #MeToo movement. The intimate, provocative, and sometimes heartbreaking conversations that emerge make us think critically about the past, present, and future of feminism.
