This dynamic collection of documentaries showcases the breadth and depth of activism across various causes and eras. From modern whaling crusades in "Defend, Conserve, Protect" to early feminist movements in "Brazen Hussies" and "Route 66: The Untold Story of Women," these films capture the spirit of protest and social change. "Operation 8" and "The 5th Eye" examine civil liberties and surveillance issues while anti-nuclear activism is highlighted in "Mururoa 1973" and "A Nuclear Free Pacific". The collection also explores Indigenous rights, artistic activism, and pivotal moments in social and political history, offering a comprehensive view of grassroots movements and their impact on society.
