Sisterhood in the 21st century. Debate following a screening of SMOKE SAUNA SISTERHOOD dir. Anna Hints
In Polish
In the 21st century, more than a hundred years after they were granted the right to vote, women still have to fight for themselves and remind the society that they have the same rights as men. They have the right to a fair compensation for their work, they can be CEOs and managers, they can decide for themselves about their bodies. What is sisterhood in the 21st century and how is it understood by modern women? And how important is it today to feel that when the whole world is against us, we have our sisters who will support us and help in any situation? Watch the award-winning film about the power of women and join our conversation.
