Most people don't know that in order to get the vote, American women suffered imprisonment and torture. It's not taught in the history books, but Alice Paul and the women who picketed the White House developed the tactics and techniques of non-violent mass action which Mahatma Gandhi was developing independently on the other side of the globe. For picketing the White House they were arrested on false charges and tortured in prison. The scandal that resulted was one of the major factors in forcing President Wilson to support votes women's suffrage. This film, a fictionalized account of this struggle, is reasonably accurate in all historically important respects.
