"A Fire Crown film"

At the turn of the century, the great Island of Newfoundland was an independent Dominion within the British Empire. Social conditions were often desperate and women, as well as men, did hard work to survive and bring their Country into the 20th century. This is THE UNTOLD STORY of the thirty-five year struggle by the women of Newfoundland to win their right to vote. "The Newfoundland Suffrogists were a spirited group of writers, artists, musicians and labour organizers...determined to use their privileged position to improve social conditions and open public life to women." - on back of video jacket.
