Made at the height of the Women's Liberation Movement, Women in Revolt follows Jackie Curtis, Candy Darling, and Holly Woodlawn--three trans women 'superstars' in Warhol's scene--as they form a group of 'libbers', PIG (Politically Involved Girls). Women in Revolt is often read as an anti-feminist parody of women's liberation (and in particular the SCUM Manifesto by Valerie Solanas), but Jackie, Candy, and Holly bring complex layers to a film that manages to be provocative in many different ways.
