This film documentary explores the intense and controversial world of the Men's Rights movement as seen through the eyes of a feminist filmmaker.

In the 1999 sci-fi film The Matrix, the protagonist is offered the choice of a red pill to access the true hidden reality or a blue pill to remain in a state of blissful delusion.

The choice to take the red pill has since become a metaphor for men who believe they've woken up to the real truth – that the world is rigged against them.

In this controversial documentary, feminist filmmaker Cassie Jaye travels down the rabbit hole of the Men's Rights movement.

Having previously directed Daddy I Do, which examines sex education and abstinence programs, and The Right to Love, which follows a gay couple and their adopted children, Jaye is known for her work examining gender politics.

The Red Pill follows Jaye over a year of interviewing leaders and followers in various Men's Rights groups, as well as feminists and academics.

Along the way, the director's views shift from seeing the movement as a hate group to questioning her own assumptions about society, gender, and power.
