Female Feature Film Festival - FIRST TO STAND. March 10/11 event
Daily Film Festivals • Documentary, Educational, History
FIRST TO STAND, 81min., Canada, Documentary
Directed by Irene Lilienheim Angelico, Abbey Jack Neidik
First to Stand opens in the streets of Moscow with protesters chanting to bring Putin down and brings us to the streets of Iran, where women dare to wave their hijabs on sticks in the streets of Tehran. Against the Russian backdrop, past and present, First to Stand follows Irwin Cotler and his team of young activists at the Raoul Wallenberg Centre as they take on the cases and cause of political prisoners and human rights activists battling the world’s most repressive regimes.
