Catherine Dwyer is the writer and director of the acclaimed 2020 documentary, ‘Brazen Hussies’ - a deep dive into the Australian Women’s Liberation Movement (1965-1975). She was inspired to make the film during her time as an Associate Producer on Mary Dore’s ‘She’s Beautiful When She’s Angry’ (2014) – about the Women’s Movement in the US. She realized how little she knew of her own country’s feminist history and how easily it was being forgotten. ‘Brazen Hussies’ was nominated for the 2020 AACTA Award for “Best Feature Documentary” and listed in The Guardian’s top 10 Australian films of 2020.
