Feminism WTF

(Austria, 2023)

Directed by: Katharina Mückstein

PHOTOGRAPHY: Michael Schindegger

Synopsis:

Even though feminism is considered the most successful social movement of the 20th century, to date there have been no documentaries that deal with its status quo. So here it comes: Feminism WTF! The achievements of the women’s* movement influence our lives every day. But still, when I say “feminism,” we might not mean the same thing. This film reflects on current debates and analyzes the potential of intersectional feminism to profoundly change our future societies.
