Pratibha Parmar and Shaheen Haq have made a profound and beautiful film. "My Name is Andrea" took me on a journey into not only a courageous and inspiring thinker and public figure, but also deep into the the dark heart of misogyny and what is required to wrest us from it. Those who think they "know" Andrea Dworkin because impatient and lazy men have misquoted her and extracted salacious lines from her texts have it all wrong. Through creative hybrid filmmaking, solid direction and attentive production design, Parmar and Haq take us into Andrea's world, heart, and mind.
