Unsung Women brings to light 28 women who contributed to change the world. Despite their achievements, their name never made into history books, and they remained in men’s shadow.
It’s time to end this invisibility! Did you know that some Vikings, samurais, and explorers were actually women? Are you aware of the importance of Ada Lovelace’s work in modern computer-programming, of Cécilia Payne’s astronomy studies or the movies made by pioneer film director Alice Guy-Blaché? They speak up at last and tell us their story, with a witty tone.With Unsung Women, sexist clichés are deconstructed to present a new face of our History and give each of these women the recognition they truly deserve!
Featuring the voices of Denis Podalydès and 28 actresses such as Camille Cottin, Jeanne Balibar, Aïssa Maïga, Agnès Jaoui, Laetitia Dosch, Laetitia Casta, Florence Loiret-Caille, Clémence Poesy and more.
