Документальный фильм об актрисе Эдриенн Шелли, иконе американского инди-кино. Эдриенн снялась в ключевых картинах культового режиссера Хэла Хартли, а последней ее ролью в кино стала лента «Официантка», которую она сама написала и поставила. Шелли не дожила до премьеры: 1 ноября 2005 года ее нашли повешенной на простыне в своем офисе. Первоначально рассматривалась версия о самоубийстве, однако позже выяснилось, что актрису убил рабочий с ближайшей стройки. «Эдриенн» — это фильм-память, признание в любви и попытка осмыслить наследие Шелли. В качестве режиссера картины выступил муж актрисы Энди Острой.

There can be no real gender justice without an unpacking of the power structures surrounding the reproductive health industry complex—and of the choices that the market pushes on women.

Through the figure of Lakota activist and community organizer Madonna Thunder Hawk, this inspiring film traces the untold story of countless Native American women struggling for their people's civil rights. Spanning several decades, Christina D. King and Elizabeth A. Castle's documentary charts Thunder Hawk's lifelong commitment, from her early involvement in the American Indian Movement (AIM), to her pivotal role in the founding of Women of All Red Nations, to her heartening presence at Standing Rock alongside thousands protesting the Dakota Access Pipeline. She passed her dedication and hunger for change to her daughter Marcy, even if that often meant feeling like comrades-in-arms more than mother and child. Through rare archival material—including amazing footage of AIM's occupation of Wounded Knee—and an Indigenous style of circular storytelling, Warrior Women rekindles the memories and legacy of the Red Power movement's matriarchs.
