JOHANNA DOHNAL - visionary of feminsm

(Working Title: We want half of the pie)

The histories and stories of women have gone untold, been suppressed and forgotten over the centuries.

"We want our half of the pie" is a testimony to Johanna Dohnal, a significant woman in Austrian history, and the film thus offers a role model for today's and the coming generations. We can see ourselves in her; in her victories as well as her failures.

A film against forgetting and for a future of equality.
