Anything You Want to Be

A teenager's dreams collide with social expectations and gender-based stereotypes when she finds that, despite her parents' assurance that she can be ‘anything she wants to be’, reality presents another story. One of the first and most widely used consciousness-raising films of the growing Women’s Movement, this film helped give voice to a generation of women whose expectations, opportunities and career choices were extremely limited.
