Watch the film at your leisure and we'll discuss it on the First Friday of every month (usually). This month we will be discussing The Divine Order

Set in Switzerland in 1971 where, despite the worldwide social upheavals of the previous decade, women were still denied the right to vote.

When unassuming and dutiful housewife Nora is forbidden by her husband to take a part-time job, her frustration leads to her becoming the poster child of her town's suffragette movement. Her newfound celebrity brings humiliation, threats, and the potential end to her marriage, but, refusing to back down, she convinces the women in her village to go on strike...and makes a few startling discoveries about her own liberation.

This film is available on Kanopy https://montgomerycountymd.kanopy.com/video/divine-order
