‘Because She Watched’ Is The New Show On Netflix We’ll All Be Bingeing On This Weekend

Every so often, Netflix release a documentary or series that everyone just can not get enough of. We’re betting that ‘Because She Watched’ will be next on everyone’s screens. Netflix and UN Women has launched a special collection of series, documentaries, and films to celebrate International Women’s Day, curated by 55 ground-breaking women in entertainment.

The collection, which will be available all year, is curated by female creators from behind and in front of the camera – including Sophia Loren, Janet Mock, Salma Hayek, Yalitza Aparicio, Millie Bobby Brown, Laurie Nunn, Lana Condor, Petra Costa and Ava DuVernay.

Created for International Women’s Day, whose official theme this year is “I am Generation Equality: Realizing Women’s Rights,” the collection celebrates the stories that have inspired the women who inspire us. These series, films and documentaries – Unbelievable and Followers to Orange Is the New Black, Lionheart and Sex Education – have started important, often hard, conversations that have helped to challenge the way we see the world.

Check out the full trailer below, and prepare for goosebumps.
