My Name is Andrea

My Name is Andrea

25th TiDF: European Premiere
The story of controversial feminist writer and public intellectual Andrea Dworkin, who offered a revolutionary analysis of male supremacy with iconoclastic flair. Decades before #MeToo, Dworkin called out the pervasiveness of sexism and rape culture, and the ways it impacts every woman’s daily life. Lyrical and journalistic, placed in time and also timeless, this hybrid documentary traces pivotal moments in the life of a fearless fighter, fusing rare archival footage with startling performances by Ashley Judd, Soko, Amandla Stenberg, Andrea Riseborough, and Christine Lahti. A rousing, urgent, and timely watch that continues to resonate long after the closing credits, inviting the viewer to reconsider the legacy of one of the most misunderstood figures of the 20th century.
