A compelling film with broad appeal. It weaves together the story of a repressed Victorian woman transformed into a pioneering political activist, the vision, factionalism, achievements, and contradictions of early Zionism, and the triumphs and limitations of a woman’s vision in a male-dominated world. Unearthing little-known or forgotten history, the film raises questions about feminism and Jewish identity, stimulates thoughtful debate, and offers an intimate exploration of one remarkable woman’s heart, mind, and enduring legacy.
