Plot

On September 5, 1981, a remarkable assembly of women united to make a stand against nuclear weapons at RAF Greenham Common. Their march from Wales to Berkshire ignited the Greenham Common Women’s Peace Camp, a powerful movement that not only confronted global leaders but also reshaped history. This groundbreaking protest, the largest female-only demonstration to date, drew inspiration from the suffragettes and sparked a worldwide dialogue about peace and disarmament, leaving an indelible mark on the fight for social justice.
