BOOK CLUB takes viewers on an emotional and personal journey through the lives of eight American women, bonded by a book club formed 70 years ago. At a time when social standards prohibited married women from continuing their careers, a group of women decided to use their book club to keep up with what was going on in the world. What they didn't anticipate was how the poignant words of the authors united them not only for these monthly gatherings, but bound them together for the journey of a lifetime.

Why We Dance
Wollongong, New South Wales,1980: Denied jobs at the steelworks, the city's main employer, working class and immigrant women refused to accept discrimination. They began a 14-year campaign for the right to work, a campaign that pitted them against BHP, the richest and most powerful company in Australia. In WOMEN OF STEEL, they tell their personal stories – from the unemployment line to the factory gate to the High Court. This is an exciting, inspiring, and often humorous story of a group of seemingly ordinary women, determined to overcome a giant - and a history lesson in a multi-year campaign against discrimination.
