Lefties: Angry Wimmin

About This Movie

Lefties: Angry Wimmin offers a raw and unfiltered look at a radical feminist movement that emerged in the gritty backdrop of Leeds. It's not your typical documentary; it dives deep into the clashes within the women's movement of the late 70s and early 80s. The pacing is a bit erratic, but it adds to the sense of urgency and discontent that defined the era. The interviews feel personal and intense, and there's this palpable atmosphere of rebellion throughout. What’s distinctive is how it frames the concept of 'political lesbians'—a term that carries weight and controversy. The film doesn’t shy away from the complexities and contradictions of its subjects, making it a fascinating watch for anyone interested in feminist history.
