Issues related to gender equality in the Czech society are discussed on many levels, with much stronger intensity and on a much larger scale than what was previously imaginable. Helped by growing media coverage, several recently founded associations and organizations try to raise awareness towards such issues among general public. These groups are often rejected by our society, much more often than politicians with their controversial statements. The documentary tries to stir the still waters of stereotypical attitudes through the “parades” of the male and female members of feminist groups. (Ji.hlava International Documentary Film Festival)

A documentary about the fact that we largely live in closed bubbles, and at the same time, an exemplary demonstration of the thinking of urban liberals who use the word "gender" in every other sentence and are soaked in feminism. However, they are completely unaware of how bizarre they appear in the eyes of those who hold different values. The problem of the documentary does not lie in what it relies on, but in how it is communicated. It convinces the convinced and reinforces the others in their rejecting attitudes. It is clumsy and very poorly presented. Overall impression: 25%.
