Making Seneca Falls

Louise Vance, the director of SENECA FALLS talks about the documentary:

The project began in 1994 with middle school girls writing a skit about their vision of the past, present and future of women's rights. They were so ahead of their time. The main character—an African American girl—goes on to become the first woman President of the United States. We often discount young people’s voices. But they have an idealistic view of the world, which is great medicine during these times. Plus, the Bay Area has an exceptional grasp on the human condition, and this troupe reflects that.
