Olympe, une femme dans la Révolution

Paris, July 1793. The situation is explosive and the Terror is in full swing. In the midst of this world of violence and change, there is only one constant: women have no right to anything. Olympe de Gouges is one of the few who dares to speak out against this injustice. A woman of letters and fighting, Olympe was a direct opponent of Robespierre. Arrested by state police, she awaits trial, locked in a detention center. Among the other women convicted, Olympe will continue to fight.
