Set in 1912, the film is focused on some of the most
influential women of the period, such as Alice Paul, Lucy Burns,
Anna Howard Shaw and Carrie Chapman Catt and their journey with the
North American Women’s Suffrage Association (NAWSA).
While being committed suffragists and feminists they often felt
the pull of both “private” and “public” spheres.Women of this time
were expected to be caregivers, housekeepers and wives. They were
obligated to stay where they were needed, which was in the private
sphere. If a woman dared to flirt with the public sphere, they were
seen as radical and unfit to participate in the private sphere as
well.
Most women were too timid or too committed to their role in the
private sphere to enter the “man’s world” of politics or economics.
Equal treatment was an unfathomable idea.
While these women were fighting for their right to vote and
their right for equal treatment, they were only human. These women
were deprived by society of having any emotional, physical or
mental connection with men in fear of looking weak.
The movie portrays the society as one sided and leaning on the
side of the men while leaving the women to grapple their way out of
socio political darkness,an endeavor which is not easily
achievable. It needs women to make many sacrifices and to incur
huge costs,for instance,Alice Paul in the film, is forced to choose
between love and socio political equality;she chooses the fight for
equality while Inez Mulholland gives up her life for the similar
cause.
