"THE F-WORD is a provocative look at the power of the word 'feminism' in the US. Why does it mean so many different things to different people? THE F-WORD proves that feminism is still something worth talking about, hotly debated, widely misconstrued, and undeniably a fact of life! Created to inspire dialogue and debate, this irreverent, visually engaging documentary gets to the heart of feminism by dismantling the word and its many meanings. THE F-WORD is an ideal discussion starter on issues related to gender, sex roles and stereotypes, and the history of the feminist movement." -Kanopy
