Pretty Tough is the premier brand and media property providing high-quality, specialty content, products and services for girls who are fun, fierce & feminine.

Take part in an exclusive International Women’s Day event on March 5, 2009, featuring the acclaimed documentary film, A Powerful Noise, followed by a live town hall discussion to 450 movie theatres.

Town hall panelists include former U.S. Secretary of State Madeleine Albright, Actress and Activist Natalie Portman, and CARE advocate Christy Turlington Burns who will be broadcast into your theatre.

An official selection of the 2008 Tribeca Film Festival, A Powerful Noise is an inspiring documentary that follows three extraordinary women — in Bosnia-Herzegovina, Mali and Vietnam — as they overcome barriers to lead day-to-day battles against ignorance, poverty, oppression, and ethnic strife.

Without an education, women and girls around the world are subject to poverty and exclusion. Together, we can remove barriers and help ensure that every girl gets the chance to learn.
