"I see this film as an opportunity to pass the torch from one generation of activists & changemakers to the next, since systemic, historic problems are rarely fixed in just 1 generation. I hope the doc will inspire young and old to pursue their passions and to fight for a better tomorrow." (2/2)

"...especially in the media–an industry which prizes youth behind & in front of the camera. This doc hopes to change that. I made this film to highlight ♀️ accomplishments, to share the wisdom and experiences of older women, and to inspire all people to remain vital and outspoken as they age." (2/2)

The poster is a tribute to those trailblazing women of the past, and an excellent reminder that women of any age can find their power and make a difference. Follow us here and across social (@tougholdbroads), and stay tuned for more!

With humour & grit, these ladies shed light on what it takes to make it in a ‘♂️'s world’ & what old age looks like when you’re a self-described 'tough old broad.' This is more than a doc; it is the spark for a movement of ♀️, both young & old, to embrace their power, speak out, and demand attention.
