The stage is now running for this new feature film on the hot topic drama, Toxic Feminism which began production last week.

This film “The Modern Woman” is no different, it recounts real-life stories of the pain women face after the loss of a pregnancy. It also goes further by displaying how this agony leads the main cast on a road to loathe and contempt. It will be interesting to see how this story unfolds, and how the audience will perceive it.
As of the time of filing this report, it is still unclear if this film will be going to the box office or directly to streaming platforms.
