Based on a true story, in WOMEN DO CRY a pair of Bulgarian activists delivers a screen adaptation focussed on the trauma of an extended Bulgarian family while calling out Bulgaria's skewed attitude towards women. The expressive drama depicts three sisters: one is struggling with her maternal role, the second discovers that she is HIV positive and the third runs into trouble because of her queer identity. While the three women try to deal with the hands they've been dealt, Bulgaria is overrun by anti-gender and anti-equality protests. In a blend of the personal and the political, Vesela Kazakova and Mina Mileva devote themselves to exposing social injustices.
