- The passage of the 19th Amendment, granting women the right to vote, was a 72 year long struggle. It began in Seneca Falls, NY, in 1848, and ended on August 26, 1920, when Tennessee became the 36th state to ratify the Constitutional Amendment. VOTES FOR WOMEN celebrates the magnificent campaign, the ultimate victory, and the paths that contemporary women are taking in politics.
- Critics place Berenice Abbott at the head of her class. She was one of the greatest American photographers of the 20th Century. From her portraits of the avant-garde taken in Paris during the 1920's, to her documentation of New York in the 1930's, to her science photography of the 1950s, and her studies of small-town America, Abbott's genius is in the incredible range of her work. Filmed during her 91st and 92nd years, the open-hearted Abbott takes us on a guided tour of her century. The tour teaches history, perseverance, courage, and single-minded dedication to one's chosen field. A brilliant film about a brilliant American artist!

No Matter from what state you hail, this right to vote battle shows how to embrace diversities and interests for a common cause. This is history and personalities, art and argument, a foundation of civil rights here and throughout the world.
