Women Talking

"Empowering! Shows how sometimes, to be strong means to seek safety somewhere else, not necessarily to fight back. Shows women and their fight for safety and their dreams. Fighting for a better future! #based_on_books #feminist #prochoice #women #women_empowerment "

"A powerful true story of a group of Mennonite women attempting reconcile their faith and move forward with life after a string of horrific sexual assaults. Despite the bleak start to the film, the rest of the movie is filled with empowering scenes and great performances. "

"Such a powerful story.a story about the corruption of power and the limited choices left to a group of Mennonite women living on a remote commune. Also a celebration of life."

"Such an amazing cast of women showcasing the strength we all have within us to fight for what we deserve. Beautiful movie."

"This was an incredibly powerful movie and hard to watch. Women Talking has a calm, almost serene quality, which makes the fleeting glimpses of the horrors these women and children went through even more bone chilling. The outstanding ensemble cast delivers incredibly nuanced and grounded performances that should give this movie a solid place among the academy award nominees. 9 out of 10"

"A powerful film with a thought-provoking exploration of the meaning of forgiveness and what is the right thing to do in a difficult position. Top notch performances across the board (especially Jessie Buckley, Rooney Mara, Claire Foy, and Ben Whishaw) and especially Sarah Polley’s screenplay (I hope this wins Adapted Screenplay at the Oscars). More people need to see this."

"Watch as SA survivors debate "noping out" in the context of a conservative Christian community. A fascinating thought experiment and a necessary watch (though not always a fun one). The cast is dope AF."

"“Sometimes I think people laugh as hard as they’d like to cry” 😖"

"Exceptional performances top to bottom and thought provoking beyond explanation. This film is going to stay with me for a very long time, and I’m glad that it will."

"I thought this would be a boring film about pioneer-type women. It should be boring, taking place mostly in a barn, but it keeps you hooked into the possibility of taking action and its consequences. "
