Q & A with the filmmaker on February 11

Braderman’s film lifts the veil on the inner workings of the Second Wave of the Women’s Movement. Members of the Heresies Collective—accomplished artists, writers, architects, filmmakers, curators, and teachers now scattered around the globe—speak intimately about the extraordinary times they shared in 1970s Manhattan. See how this group reflects a larger movement that challenged the terms of gender and power, re-writing the lives of generations to follow.
