Plot
Sarah Gavron directs Meryl Streep, Carey Mulligan and Helena Bonham Carter in 'Suffragette', a historic drama focused on the fight for equal voting in United Kingdom. Maude, Carey Mulligan's character, lives her life being nearly nothing for being a woman. She doesn't think things could be different, until she meets a group of women who fight for their right to vote. They are willing to loose everything for dignity and equality in the elections. Gavron, director known for films like 'Village at the End of the World', 'Brick Lane' or 'This Little Life', based her work on a script by Abi Morgan to shape this film that is already a favorite for Oscar 2016.
