In France, a group of young women tells a different history of Paris

Feminists in the City is a French organisation that has been organising feminist-themed walking tours in Paris and other cities since 2018. These tours offer an alternative way of experiencing the city: not through monuments to generals and kings, but through street art, literature, memories, and places of protest.

Participants explore the history of Paris through the lives and voices of women writers, artists, and activists long excluded from official histories. This is a story about tourism as a tool for education and resistance.

For their series about books and people around Europe, our partners

@KrytykaPolitycznaTV‬ went to one of the tours to see for themselves. This shortdoc is also part of our “Stories Breaking Borders” series. To watch other films in the series, check out our channel.
