When Your Political Activism Freaks out Your Family

This documentary follows young activists whose commitment to political causes unsettles their own families. Maria in Mexico campaigns against violence towards women, while Somkele fights for democracy in Nigeria, both carrying risks that worry the parents who raised them. The film explores the tension between conviction and love, and the danger that real activism can bring. Intimate and thoughtful, it captures a generational divide playing out around the world.
