Fighting Traditions (DOCUMENTARY, 17 minutes, 18 seconds)
Sayla Freeman, Morgan Diamond, Allison Money, Hannah Sink

Fighting TraditionsFighting Traditions is an interesting mix of old and new: a look at three different women in completely different places, but all with one thing in common–Thailand. This provocative and heartfelt film raises larger questions about women's roles in Thai society and a woman's desire for something more.
