A bio-doc about my pal Judy Rebick: iconic second wave Canadian feminist, radical activist, journalist and writer. She is the founding publisher of rabble.ca, Canada’s irreverent progressive online news source, and a former president of the National Action Committee on the Status of Women, Canada’s largest women’s group. Shot in kinetic bursts of super 8, the only voice is Judy’s, impelling a trek through a devastated family, the struggle for women’s right to choose and the challenge of neo-liberalism. A series of six public moments (marked by speeches and TV spots) structure a life collage that arrives in six movements. A fractured movie for fractured times.

A quasi-experimental vision on the social trajectory of a veteran civil rights fighter in Canada. The director uses archive images and visual alterations with the voice-over of the protagonist, always secondary in terms of the image, but main in terms of the message. It is a different approach to the profile of a character, which perhaps is exhausting for sixty minutes, but which finds some moments of calm in specific historical events, and it is a complex and accurate portrait of a woman who has dedicated her entire life to fighting for human rights.
