It follows Delia, a woman stuck in an abusive marriage, during the days of the first italian general elections in which women were allowed to vote, just after the liberation from fascism, while american troops were still patrolling italian streets.
It's fun and delicate while tackling important issues, and it's one of the few strongly feminist movies that managed to appeal to the general public in a country in which femicide is still a prominent issue which our government refuses to talk about.
It was Cortellesi's directional debut (she's also a co-writer and plays the main character), which is wonderful on its own but even more so as it was the most successful film at the Italian box office in 2023.
Please please please support women directors, especially those who are not american and struggle to get to an international public.

I'm begging all feminists to watch this movie if you haven't, it was huge in Italy and deserves more international recognition
honestly my study motivation is being able to maximise the number of men I can be condescending to
(jokes aside, I love explaining things to people who are interested - strangely, it's almost always women)
hardest part about studying stem is not the stem it's the fucking incel classmates thinking they're special and smart
like ok we can all solve differential equations but can you do that while being a decent person? mm yeah didn't think so
Just a heads up: this is not true.
While homosexuals and gender non conforming people were persecuted by nazis, the reason Hirschfeld's institute was shut down was that he was Jewish and promoted the idea that homosexuality was not an illness, which was considered "jewish science".
It is important to remember the many victims of the Holocaust and nazism but it is also important to not bend history in order to fit a narrative.
And I'll say it again: homosexuals and gender non conforming people went through horrible things and it's important to share actual sources on that instead.
I've been having the flu on and off for a month now
Being sick for anything longer than three days is unreasonable. Like okay, I get it, let's fucking wrap it up here
I'm painting some of my jackets, design suggestions warmly encouraged (especially women/feminism related)!!!!!!!
it's always "makeup is about self-expression," yeah why does your self-expression always include glassy skin and contour that makes your face look skinnier?
no girl, your full face of makeup with a vaguely unusual eyeshadow colour is not "men repellant", stop kidding yourself
If school is catered towards women tell me why my parents had to fight with every PE teacher because I wanted to play the "boys sports" instead of doing boring ass pilates in elementary school
I get so pissed when people say this. The education system was literally created by and for men. Women weren’t allowed to get an education for hundreds of years. Women are still not allowed to get an education in certain countries. Every time women are better at men than something they blame it on “the system.”
Bring back women learning self-defense as an anti-fascism movement
Just saw the most frustrating post about "bringing back red lipstick as an anti-fascism movement" - the male CEOs of every major cosmetics company would LOVE that. You wouldn't be sticking it to any fascists by conforming to sexist beauty standards. Save your money, save your time, and fight fascism by, you know, standing up to fascist leaders and policies. Don't buy lipstick.
