- Summary:
- It has been over forty years since Simone de Beauvoir published the Second Sex which heralded the start of the women's movement. In this film we talk to the women who took the baton from de Beauvoir to race ahead with the cause: Kate Millet, Marge Piercy, Eva Figes and Ann Oakley. Through the eyes of the women she influenced, a portrait of Simone de Beauvoir s unique personality and unconventional lifestyle emerges. Here is an in-depth look at one of the leading figures in the international women s movement.
