MOXIE – Movies In March 2021 On Netflix
March 3
Tales of female empowerment just hit differently, especially when you are all about smashing the patriarchy. In case, you have been itching for an inspiration to start a revolution as well, then look no further than this gem among the latest movies in March 2021 on Netflix.
Based on the novel of the same name by Jennifer Mathieu, Moxie follows the story of a seemingly shy 16 year old girl named Vivian, who prefers to keep her head down and fly under the radar. But the arrival of a new student forces her to examine the unchecked behavior of her fellow students running rampant at her high school. Vivian realizes she’s fed up with the sexist and toxic status quo at her high school.
Therefore, after getting inspired from her mother’s rebellious past, she decides to spark a school-wide, coming-of-rage revolution through an anonymously published zine called Moxie to expose bias and wrongdoing in her high school. Now at the center of a revolution, Vivian begins to forge new friendships with other young women and allies, reaching across the divide of cliques and clubs as they learn to navigate the highs and lows of high school together.
The comedy-drama film is directed by Amy Poehler and stars Hadley Robinson, Lauren Tsai, Josephine Langford and Patrick Schwarzenegger.

Audrey Hepburn was not just a Hollywood star but she was a worldwide icon as well. Her impact went far beyond the film industry, with her visionary ideas majorly influencing fashion, philanthropy, art, etc. But all things considered, she was still a woman of mystery. There have been many documentaries made about her, but Netflix comes with a new one that seeks to dig deeper into the persona that has captured so many hearts around the world.

These sequences have been choreographed by the revered Wayne McGregor.
