Handmaidens and Battleaxes is a 1990 documentary film, created by Rosalind Gillespie, about the evolving role of nurses.[1]
Reception
In Filmnews Martha Ansara says "Handmaidens and Battleaxes is one of those rare films which will actually make an impact upon public perception of an issue. The mere fact of its existence as testament is evidence of the release of the potential of nurses, so long suppressed and downgraded. The conceptual skills of female director and crew demonstrate, to me at least, that the feminist film can communicate complex ideas to a wide audience without lowering the filmic common denominator."[2]
