In 1981, thousands of women gathered at Greenham Common to protest against nuclear weapons. Their bold, nonviolent resistance became a powerful symbol of feminist and anti-nuclear activism - a story of courage that still resonates today! Fast forward to now, and πππ§ππ₯π ππ§π π«π² ππ¨π¦ππ§ tells this story through the eyes of a new generation of young activists as they retrace the footsteps of the original protesters. Unaware of the longest female-led campaign in British history, a new generation of young female activists is standing up to fight for the issues of their time, as well as being teenagers and finding their place in a turbulent world. Meet three fearless young women, Poppy (16), Xanthe (17), and Evie (19) who embark on a 110-mile 40th anniversary march to retrace the footsteps of Greenham Common's pioneering female protesters. Through powerful intergenerational exchanges with their activist counterparts, the film reveals a journey of self-discovery and a timely narrative of feminist activism. As nuclear tensions rise globally, their story becomes urgently relevant for today. A coming-of-age documentary that sparks conversations about hope, action and change.
