What does
being woman
mean in 2025?

HER is a documentary and storytelling project and that asks that question across cities, cultures, generations, and lived experience.

Womanhood is not a monolith,

and HER reflects that.

HER marries powerful, arching themes with lived experience of womanhood—past and present.

She illuminates the threads that unite our experience— rage, silence, softness, identity, joy—

but she lives in the intersections
that make each perspective unique.

HER EXPLORES:

  • Becoming a Girl

    girlhood, first awareness of gender

  • Learning the Rules

    shame, restriction, socialization

  • Love & Desire

    agency, intimacy, ownership

  • Care & Mothering

    both literal and metaphorical

  • Labor & Worth

    work, ambition, burnout

  • Bodies & Identity

    health, beauty, aging, survival

  • Saying No

    Sayboundaries, resistance, freedom

  • Grief & Rage

    loss, anger, transformation

  • Legacy & Power

    elderhood, reinvention, voice

This project prioritizes the voices of:

  • Women of color

  • Trans and nonbinary people

  • Disabled women

  • Working-class and rural communities

  • Queer and neurodivergent storytellers

  • Immigrant and first-gen women

  • Anyone whose experience has been ignored, erased, or simplified

Each theme opens the door to truth. And each person adds another layer to the discussion.

We tell stories through three key formats:

🎤 Roundtables

Real conversations between 3–4 women, filmed in intimate spaces. Each session explores a theme:

  • “What we’ve unlearned.”

  • “Who taught you what a woman should be?”

  • “The invisible work of being seen.”

We prioritize honesty, intersectionality, and lived experience—across race, age, gender expression, class, and body.

🗣 Street Interviews

We ask one disarming question and let the camera roll:

  • “What makes you feel powerful?”

  • “When did you first realize the world saw you as a woman?”

  • “What have you had to hide to survive?”

This format is global, spontaneous, deeply human, and viral worthy.

📬 Submissions (Coming Soon)

We’re building a platform where women can submit their own stories, experiences, and truth. No gatekeeping.

Empowerment is messy.

HER is allowed to be angry, soft, loud, and confused. She’s confident and insecure, just like us. She delivers sharp one-liners, externally processes, and sometimes outright contradicts herself.​

She contains multitudes and rejoices in it all—because it’s all HER.​

In your truth and vulnerability, she lives—raw, real, relatable, and rarely spoken.
