This assignment requires that you watch a film or documentary that questions or pushes the boundaries regarding gender in our society. Students should choose from the list below.* Many are available free via Netflix, Amazon Prime, or HBO, but if not, I have linked it to the SDSU library website. Simply watch the film/documentary. After viewing the film, write a very brief description, then the majority of the paper should consist of a critical response utilizing material, theories, and concepts discussed in class and/or readings. Make sure to cite sources. The essay must be typed, in APA style, and be between two to three pages. You will be graded for your ability to engage the film based on course material and the quality of your writing.
