My Name Is Andrea, a genre defying film explores the visceral effects of male violence on women’s psyches and bodies through the compelling verbatim writings of radical feminist Andrea Dworkin (1946-2005).
The original ‘nasty woman’, Dworkin’s experience of male violence was the unflinching compass for her writings.
My Name Is Andrea imaginatively interweaves dramatized personas, archival footage and interviews to create an arc of one life as dramatic as the decades in which it unfolded and speaks directly to the #MeToo movement of today.
