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.
