Peter Debruge Variety Simultaneously educates and inspires... Feb 26, 2019 Full Review Anna M.M. Vetticad Firstpost "...though it may well have been started with good intentions, it has ended up a confusing, poorly researched and, sadly, even dishonest film." Jun 20, 2022 Full Review Barbara Shulgasser Common Sense Media Indian women fight stigma of menstruation in short docu. Rated: 4/5 Apr 23, 2020 Full Review Luke Whiston TheShiznit.co.uk Period. End of Sentence. may be a fairly flimsy documentary that never lives up to that puntastic title, but what it does do is serve as a necessary conversation starter. Rated: C+ Jan 8, 2020 Full Review Bonnie Burton CNET The documentary Period. End of Sentence de-stigmatizes menstruation and allows us to celebrate our periods in our own way. May 30, 2019 Full Review Rahul Desai Film Companion Craft-wise, it is nothing remarkable, at least in context of the world it represents. But if social relevance is a part of filmmaking in narrative fiction, social relevance is filmmaking in narrative non-fiction. Rated: 3/5 Feb 22, 2019 Full Review Read all reviews

Ashlyn H This short documentary was okay. The voice overs were so infuriating though. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 11/08/22 Full Review Kai K The movie was ok, has an important point but the voiceover was a bit annoying (I would prefer subtitles) I feel like it could have been summed up in a 10-40min youtube video. Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 11/08/22 Full Review Audience Member Period. End of Sentence. takes a significant step for feminine growth in India. As menstruation is a taboo topic, it opens up a much-needed conversation about women's health. It brings to light the struggles women face about a natural part of life and promotes "The Pad Project" that not only supplies women with jobs but with much needed sanitary products. This short documentary is educational and inspiring as it takes steps to break down the stigmas and ignorance surrounding menstruation. It empowers women to help themselves in a culture that often has women as second class citizens. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/13/23 Full Review Audience Member Such an inspiring documentary that focuses in on how other cultures and countries deal with such normal occurrences in vastly different ways. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/10/23 Full Review Audience Member Different and refreshing. I really enjoyed the shots of women trying to talk about menstruation the awkwardness the laughter it's hard not to feel empathy Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/10/23 Full Review Audience Member Watch this if: You're time poor, but you could really get into a short, inspiring gem of a movie. Imagine not knowing what a menstrual pad is? The women in Period. End of Sentence. have never heard of one. This fantastic, 30 minute watch hits all the sweet spots. It's about women living in rural Indian communities who are shy about their periods. They're so shy that the topic of periods is off limits. The result is an entire country of women who's opportunities are severely limited. We drew our breath in surprise again and again and were inspired by the collective desire of women to bring change to their communities. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/08/23 Full Review Read all reviews
