The best thing about being a woman is the prerogative to have a little fun and…get that patent. Or change that tire and do whatever you have to do to get into that spin class. These seven films exquisitely demonstrate the complexity of life as a self-empowered woman by telling their diverse, and at-times mesmerizing, stories.
In 1870, Margaret Knight launched a patent dispute that would be the first of its kind. She is forced to prove in court that she the designer, is the rightful owner of the patent of the machine that puts bottoms on paper bags; not Charles Annan, the man who has already built it.
