Period. End of Sentence. is a documentary short film that sheds light on a quiet revolution led by women in a rural village near Delhi, India. This inspiring film, directed by Rayka Zehtabchi, highlights their battle against the deeply ingrained social stigma surrounding menstruation.
For generations, these women have faced immense challenges due to the lack of access to sanitary pads. This has resulted in various health issues and has also forced girls to miss school or drop out entirely. However, with the installation of a sanitary pad machine in the village, the women begin to manufacture and market their own pads, revolutionizing their community.
The women name their brand FLY, symbolizing their desire for women to soar. This empowering journey is made possible, in part, by the efforts of high school girls in California who raised funds for the machine and established a non-profit organization called The Pad Project.
Throughout the documentary, viewers witness the collective efforts of these women to overcome societal barriers and create positive change. Their determination and entrepreneurship serve as an inspiration to women around the world.
Period. End of Sentence. is a powerful testament to the strength and resilience of women, emphasizing the importance of breaking taboos and empowering communities through education and economic opportunities. This documentary is a must-watch for anyone interested in understanding the global impact of menstrual stigma and the potential for change.
