Netflix’s feminist movie Moxie is about young people, not by them — and it shows – ABC Life
The film Moxie celebrates grassroots activism, feminism and diversity — and reveals there’s still a long way to go.
One of the most-watched shows on Netflix this week is about teenagers calling out sexism.
Moxie, directed by Amy Poehler of Mean Girls fame, tells the story of shy 16-year-old Vivian, who publishes an anonymous zine criticising sexist behaviour and misogyny at her high school after becoming inspired by her mum’s feminist roots.
It’s a timely tale that celebrates the power of grassroots activism and it leaves viewers feeling hopeful that today’s girls might just save the world.
