As women speak out, power pushes back. Three urgent documentaries explore the legal, cultural and systemic forces working to silence women across the world.

As more women speak out against abuse and injustice, new systems of silencing are emerging in response. From defamation lawsuits and legal intimidation to entrenched cultural misogyny and structural inequality, this conversation brings together filmmakers and advocates to examine how power adapts to suppress women’s voices. Drawing on three urgent documentaries spanning Australia, Spain and Puerto Rico, the conversation explores the global fight for justice, the risks of speaking out, and what meaningful legal and cultural change might look like.
