BWiFF 2025 Beyond Presentation

Set against the backdrop of the early 20th century women’s suffrage movement, the Discovering Catharine explores McCulloch’s trailblazing career as one of the first female attorneys in the U.S. and her relentless fight for women’s equality, particularly in the legal and political arenas. Through archival footage, expert interviews, and personal stories, the documentary sheds light on McCulloch’s contributions to securing women’s right to vote and her enduring impact on modern women’s rights movements.
