Still Naming the Problem: A New Film Premiering at Tribeca, Then Heading to HBO, Celebrates ...Ms. Magazine
Still Naming the Problem: A New Film Premiering at Tribeca, Then Heading to HBO, Celebrates the Radical Origins—and Ongoing Impact—of Ms. Magazine
This month, the powerful new documentary Dear Ms.: A Revolution in Print, celebrating the trailblazing history and enduring impact of Ms. magazine, premieres at the Tribeca Film Festival.

If you’re in New York City June 10-15, we’d love for you to see it (and maybe meet some Ms. staff!). Get a ticket here—three of the five screenings still have spots available, and you can join a waitlist for the others. If you can’t make it to a screening, don’t worry: The film will stream on HBO Max starting in July.
We are thrilled for the film’s release and the opportunity for millions more people to experience the story and legacy of the magazine. Ms. is more than a magazine—it’s a movement. And it’s crucial we continue to build an intergenerational, intersectional and diverse feminist coalition for the road ahead—because, as the film reminds us, we’re “at this crossroads moment for feminism, journalism and American values.”
With intimate interviews, rare archival footage and excerpts from the Ms. book, 50 Years of Ms.: The Best of the Pathfinding Magazine That Ignited a Revolution (September 2023, Knopf), filmmakers Salima Koroma, Alice Gu and Cecilia Aldarondo and producer and documentary filmmaker Dyllan McGee shine a spotlight on the magazine’s early days as a radical force for feminism, equality and truth-telling.
It’s a thrilling and timely reminder: Ms. has always named the problem—and we still do.
