Men’s rights activists don’t usually get good press – they’ve been linked (they’d say wrongly) to misogyny, hate speech and online harassment.

But hardcore men’s rights activists – you can get a feel for what they’re about on the Reddit sub The Red Pill – claim that they’re trying to address imbalances such as the problem of male suicide.

One feminist film-maker aims to make a film which she hopes will offer a balanced view of ‘men’s rights’ for the first time.

Feminist film-maker Cassie Jaye said that she faced problems – including financial support being withdrawn after it became clear she wanted to make a balanced film.




Jaye told Breitbart, ‘We weren’t finding executive producers who wanted to take a balanced approach, we found people who wanted to make a feminist film.’

The film has now more than doubled its $97,000 funding goal.

The film-makers say, ‘There have been many speculations about this film’s intentions, but we at Jaye Bird Productions would like to set the record straight about what this film is and what this film isn’t. This film is NOT propaganda. This film is NOT trying to promote one way of thinking. And this film is NOT a “hit piece” (where a film’s motive is to take down or “expose” someone or some group).

‘This film is an explorative documentary. The viewer is lead down the rabbit hole of gender politics by a young feminist who is curious about the Men’s Rights Movement and is willing to listen and wants to understand everything they have to say.’
