SUMMARY:'Combat Women'
LOCATION:Wagstaffe Community Hall
DESCRIPTION:Combat Women looks at the influential role Vietnamese women pla
 yed in the defeat of both the French and American forces during the Indoch
 ina Wars [1945 to 1975] and how their actions consequently freed them from
  the repressive patriarchy of their society. \n\nWhilst in the West the wo
 men’s movement of the '60s and '70s fought for proper recognition for wo
 men\, in Vietnam their battles were even more seismic. In a world of comba
 t\, and a struggle for independence\, gender was not in play.  \n\nCombat 
 Women is the story of such women\, their courage\, bravery and faith.\n\n
 \n"This film gives a terrific then-and-now view of women soldiers. We see 
 them in combat fatigues firing at B-52 bombers or in rice fields with guns
  slung over their backs. Then we meet the subjects of the grainy black-and
 -white footage\, and hear how they've fared." \nNicole Brady\, Film Critic
  The Age\n\n"There are many enduring images that came out of the Vietnam W
 ar - the first war delivered to our lounge rooms via television. Very few 
 however\, would be as compelling as those in this documentary on the long 
 haired soldiers of war." Jenny Dillon\, Film Critic The Daily Telegraph\n
 \n"This thoughtful documentary puts aside the rights and wrongs\, and look
 s at the human stories involved in the war. It beautifully tells the stori
 es of these fighting women."\nSunday Times\n\n"This inspiring film by Aust
 ralian director/producer David Elfick reminds us that for most of the 20th
  century\, the women of Vietnam were fighting for their country\, their ch
 ildren's future\, and their lives."\nThe Guardian\n\nBoletos: https://www.
