‘Gentle, Angry Women’, a film which was made at our 40th anniversary recreation of the Greenham Women’s march from Cardiff to Greenham, is being screened in venues from Penzance to Nottingham this February and March!
The documentary follows three young women as they join many others to retrace the 110 mile march to Greenham Common, forty years after the first Women’s Peace Protests began. The original protest lasted 19 years and became one of the most significant women’s movements in the UK, yet remains unknown to many people today.
“Every woman deserves to know her own history – yet an entire generation has been robbed of the knowledge that thousands of women once lived for years in makeshift camps, facing arrest and ridicule to prevent nuclear war,” said the film’s director, Barbara Santi.
After its initial success, the film is returning for a 2026 tour, with screenings planned in Redruth, Falmouth, Heligan, Penzance, St Just, Bath and Bristol. The tour begins in February and continues throughout Women’s History Month in March.
Barbara will be attending many of the screenings to host Q&As, alongside guest panels featuring women from the local area. Rebecca Mordan will be joining Barbara for the Q&A at the Swindon screening on 10th March!
