A rousing and enlightening new documentary from first-time director Catherine Dwyer, Brazen Hussies looks back at the revolutionary history of the Women’s Liberation Movement in Australia. Combining an array of archival footage and illuminating first-hand accounts from major feminist figures including Anne Summers, Elizabeth Reid, Pat O’Shane, Martha Ansara, Kerryn Higgs and more, the film brings to life the stories of a bold group of women who demanded equality, defied societal expectations and enacted meaningful social change.
