Muriel Matters was a South Australian actress who moved to London in 1905 and became a pivotal figure in the suffragette movement. Matters made a remarkable contribution to the fight for women's right to vote but her story is surprisingly little-known by most Australians. Through archive footage, interviews and dramatic reconstruction Muriel Matters! explores how this extraordinary woman got lost from history, and reveals what her story tells us about the links between art, politics and women's rights in England and Australia…………
Good precis, worth a read, but am denied access to the video.
