Gender, Power & the Courtroom: Feminist Film Club February Screening

In a town in Southwest Cameroon, a state prosecutor and a judge work within the court system to seek justice for victims of gender-based violence. The
documentary follows multiple cases as they unfold, showing both the limits and possibilities of the legal system. At its heart, it follows two women confronting patriarchal power and nurturing solidarity amongst the women and girls in the community they serve.

Please note: This documentary follows real experiences of sexual and gender-based violence affecting young girls and women. The subject matter is sensitive, and some viewers may find it upsetting.

Feminist Film Club is a monthly film club for those who love cinema and want to build a community around women-led films in Stoke-on-Trent ✊

We host screenings on the last Thursday of every month, and everyone is welcome to join us. Our screenings take place at The Moony Club (next door to Iceland) at Longton Exchange.

After each screening, we’ll gather for a lively discussion where you can share your thoughts, explore key themes, and delve deeper into the film’s context.

If you’d like more information about this month’s film or have any questions, feel free to reach out to us at feministfilmclubstoke@outlook.com.

Accessibility

Unfortunately, the toilets inside The Moony Club are up two flights of stairs, so they are not wheelchair accessible. However, there are disabled toilets at Tesco, a five-minute walk away, which is open until midnight.
