Production details
Author, feminist and political activist Catherine Mayer is at the end of her tether. Co-founder of the Women's Equality Party, Mayer sees a better, brighter and more equal future shimmering just out of reach on the horizon - with society hurtling in the opposite direction! But it's not only deranged presidents and dangerous populists at fault... Disarming and honest, Mayer draws on her front-line experience in journalism and politics to discuss the damaging polarity of debate culture in this funny, candid look at the world around us. Is identity politics to blame? What makes us mistrust everyone but fall for fake news? Are we getting nastier? The simple truth is that life is complicated - it's time to embrace the complexity.
