What's the Story?

SHE RISES UP shares the journeys of three inspiring women in high poverty areas around the world and their determination to help lift their local communities out of poverty through their small businesses. Gladys Yupanqui of Peru is looking to expand her mini-market business. Magatte Wade of Senegal has a cosmetics manufacturing company that stays true to her roots. And Selyna Peiris of Sri Lanka is overcoming obstacles to sustain her textile company. All three resilient women are fighting the odds, stereotypes, and ongoing struggles so that they can persevere, empower women, and work to counteract poverty.

Is It Any Good?

Our review:
Parents say: (1 ):
Kids say: Not yet rated

Inspiring on every level, this documentary not only highlights the work that still needs to be done globally for women's rights and poverty but also encourages us to look at our own societal impact. She Rises Up connects viewers with its subjects' very personal journeys while also relating to the passionate entrepreneurial spirit within many of us. The storytelling is honest and hungry. The women's courage and perseverance is motivating. And the focus on the countries of Sri Lanka, Senegal, and Peru may help educate some viewers about global cultures, communities, and business practices.
