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.

Set in 1950s Bronzeville, Louise Parker is facing eviction from her home. Desperate to keep her independence and status, she is introduced to a lucrative performing opportunity. While attempting to keep this new venture a secret, she simultaneously gains popularity, risking being exposed to and disowned by her mother. After being offered a promotion, she is left with two choices, become the headliner, or allow her family to lose everything.
