I just watched the trailer for this moving documentary, A Powerful Noise. The film profiles three different women: Hanh, an HIV-positive widow in Vietnam; Nada, a survivor of the Bosnian war; and Jacqueline, who works the slums of Bamako, Mali.
[The film] takes you inside the lives of these women to witness their daily challenges and their significant victories over poverty and oppression. Their stories are personal yet illustrate larger issues affecting millions of marginalized women worldwide. A Powerful Noise is a meditation on the inherent potential of women to change the world.
The film was made in cooperation with CARE and ONE. There are a few more screenings before the end of the year in Miami, California, St. Louis, Anchorage, and more. To see the full schedule, click here. Check out the trailer below.
