Respect at Uni Week – The Feminist on Cellblock Y Movie Screening

Join us for The Feminist on Cellblock Y, a powerful documentary on gender justice and the transformative impact of education inside prison.

The Feminist on Cellblock Y is an American documentary directed by Contessa Gayles and co-produced with Emma Lacey-Bordeaux for CNN.

The titular subject is Richie Reseda, an inmate at a prison in California who studies and organises around feminism and toxic masculinity with his fellow inmates.

The film will be shown as part of RMIT's Respect at Uni Week 2025 activities.

Come grab some free popcorn, icecream and soft drinks while you watch the film! While there, you can also explore university student services available to you.
