This spirited film documents a unique United Nation's women's conference held in Nairobi, Kenya, in July, 1985. Of the 17 000 participants, 14 000 were non-governmental delegates from around the world. An intense desire to debate with good will to resolve major questions about peace, development, equality and related issues characterized this conference, making it a model of democratic co-operation. The camera weaves a splendid tapestry of official and semi-official encounters, revealing the dynamism, the strength and the ethics of care of the women's movement worldwide.
