Throughout the streets of France, words have begun to appear pasted onto the walls of buildings. The collages are the work of a new wave of French feminists who are passionate about getting their messages about male violence seen and heard.
Under mostly the cover of night, equipped with buckets of glue and sheets of white paper bearing black painted letters, they reclaim public spaces and get their messages out there and this spirited documentary follows the members in action and listens to their thoughts and hopes for the future.
There are over 200 of these groups in France, with more spreading across London, New York and Mexico. In Feminist Riposte, directors Marie Perennès and Simon Depardon speak to a handful of the people involved in 10 French cities to get an understanding of why they do what they do.
