5. In my opinion the Oscar Prize was really important because, this act helped to break the silence around this subject, encouraging discussions about menstruation, the right to hygiene, and the need for public policies to combat period poverty.

Additionally, winning the Oscar expanded the film’s reach, turning it into a global awareness tool about how the lack of information and access to menstrual products can impact women’s education and future.

I really liked this film, because unfortunately there are many people who don't talk openly about the subject: period, and many of them think that it’s a disease, and with this short film it’s possible to somehow change that!

We were able to see that many women don’t have access to sanitary pads, something that is very normal for us, and with this we were also able to learn about other realities.

In this documentary, they show us a totally different reality, girls and women didn't know what a pad was or how to talk about menstruation without being a strange topic.

The knowledge about menstruation is the most important thing in women's life. They have to know that they can go to school or have a normal life even when they are in menstruation.

Menstruation doesn't have to be a taboo.

I liked this film and I think that everyone should watch because we need to end with the idea that menstruation is an ilness and is something bad,specially, in the kind of culture that is showed in the film, where sometimes women have to give up from school. Because as we all know this is something that women can't have control, and instead of being jugded they need to be supported. So, this film is good to end with this taboo

My opinion about them winning the Oscar is that the win was deserved. With the Oscar win, the story of sanitary pads spread around the world and gave visibility to these sanitary pads. With this visibility, people started to help with money to create more machines.

In my opinion, this film is very important because it characterizes many of the difficulties in developing countries and shows the difficulty simply as a sanitary pad, which in developed countries is a banal and easy-to-use thing. In these countries it is a primary and unknown thing that is only now being manufactured and taught to women in these countries thanks to this initiative that can improve the lives of all these women and give exposure to all these delays at the level of developing countries.
