The Divine Order (2017)

  • Cornerstone Bank Building - Park View Room 230 Park Avenue Worcester, MA, 01609 United States (map)

It's 1971 and women in Switzerland still don't have the right to vote. The ladies of a small alpine village get together to do something about it. This is a story of oppression, courage, and progress.  Selected as the 2017 Swiss nominee for the Best Foreign Language Film Academy Award, it is equal parts comedy, drama, and historical fiction.

Written and Directed by Petra Volpe
