Votes for Women: Wanted!

Votes for Women: Wanted!

From the late nineteenth century to 1928, those who were nicknamed the "suffragettes" made the United Kingdom move from the census vote to universal suffrage, completely redefining the notion of citizenship. This documentary follows the struggle of five of these women, who have dedicated their lives to this fierce struggle, some advocating civil disobedience or lobbying MPs and Lords, the others choosing violent action, braving prison, and even death.
