Dreams of Equality
A documentary drama that chronicles the early struggles of the Women’s Rights Movement and personalizes them through an exchange of letters between a sister and brother.
History comes to life as dramatic recreations of the First Women’s Rights Convention held in Seneca Falls in 1848 and other historical events are combined with contemporary segments in which young people engage in candid exchanges about the roles of men and women.
Issues of political equity, traditional women’s roles, marital finances and educational opportunities for girls are still relevant today – almost 160 years later.
