# Event Details - **Event Name**: This is the Feminist Archive: Women Fight the Power! - **Event Start and End Date**: Thu, 29 Jan, 2026 at 07:00 pm – Thu, 29 Jan, 2026 at 09:00 pm - **Event Description**: A history of protest and resistance in Toronto and beyondAbout this EventWelcome back to our Winter 2026 season! Our screening series highlights groundbreaking Canadian feminist film and video from the 70s-90s.Women Fight the Power: Protest in Toronto and BeyondThese films fight the power of the factory boss, the welfare authorities, the museum, and the government itself. While only some of the struggles addressed in the films primarily concern women, the fierce female eyes behind the camera lead to particular aesthetic choices, topical concerns and juxtapositions that reveal the intersectionality of feminism at the time. From Joyce Wieland’s gentle yet sharply political rumination on women’s work to Alanis Obomsawin’s immersive, empathetic verité sensibility, these films and videos are generously nuanced, allowing for contradiction and complexity. They refuse simple solutions while also opening up off-screen spaces of possibility.Date: Thursday January 29th, 2026Location: The Commons @ 401 Richmond Street W, 4th flrTime: 7:00pm-9:00pmABOUT THE SERIES:This is the Feminist Archive: Feminist Film and Video 1970s-1990sThe events in the series, screenings accompanied by conversations with the artists, recontextualize feminist film and video work as constitutive of archival futures; a future imperfect: what will be seen to have been. The films and videos in the programs come from the last three decades of the 20th century when feminist political organizing was inextricable with women’s cultural production. This screening series emerges from the SSHRC-funded project “The Personal is Digital: Remediating and Digitizing Canada’s Intergenerational Feminist & Queer Media Heritage." The 2026 iteration of the series is directed and curated by Drs. Marusya Bociurkiw with administration and additional curation by Lexie Corbett.Special thanks to the Social Science and Humanities Research Council of Canada, Vtape, Canadian Filmmakers Distribution Centre, Video Out/VIVO Media Arts Centre.Follow us on Instagram @the.femarchive - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/toronto/this-is-the-feminist-archive-women-fight-the-power/100001980141766327 - **Event Categories**: entertainment, art - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 0, max: 0, currency: CAD ## Event venue details - **city**: Toronto - **state**: ON - **country**: Canada - **location**: 401 Richmond St W - **lat**: 43.6476322 - **long**: -79.3950698 - **full address**: 401 Richmond St W, 401 Richmond Street West, Toronto, Canada ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: This is the Feminist Archive: Women Fight the Power! - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events5/banners/f2c03ed6c6da3ac950271dc8e5de0b2da13c3472d356224202fae77f22cfb082-rimg-w1200-h525-dce07901-gmir.jpg?v=1768569551 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is This is the Feminist Archive: Women Fight the Power! being held? - **A:** This is the Feminist Archive: Women Fight the Power! takes place on Thu, 29 Jan, 2026 at 07:00 pm to Thu, 29 Jan, 2026 at 09:00 pm at 401 Richmond St W, 401 Richmond Street West, Toronto, Canada. - **Q**: Who is organizing This is the Feminist Archive: Women Fight the Power!? - **A:** This is the Feminist Archive: Women Fight the Power! is organized by The Feminist Recycling Group. - **Q**: Who is this event for?
