In 1960's San Francisco, bright and talented catholic school girl Celina Guerrera (ONCE UPON A TIME IN HOLLYWOOD's Lorenza Izzo) survives a difficult home life by following the rules. That is until an indiscretion creates a series of devastating consequences. As Celina faces the compounded obstacles of being young and alone, she sets out to rise above the oppression of poverty and invest in a future that sets new precedents for the time. Inspired by real women and the Janis Joplin song of the same title.

Critics Consensus

While it might have benefited from a subtler approach to its message, Women Is Losers is elevated by outstanding work from lead Lorenza Izzo.

Concepción de León

New York Times

More often the direct addresses feel overly didactic, seeming to prioritize changing minds over telling a story.

San Jose Mercury News

Feliciano uses creative ways to keep things from getting didactic, even staging a sassy little musical number in the Mission. It boasts a killer soundtrack too.

A Latina-led period piece? Yes!, please. Wholeheartedly appreciated the thematics covered which is a wide range of female issues. Anchored by a magnetic performance from Lorenza Izzo.

Rated: 4/5

I totally loved this movie. I really connected with the mother and her journey because she reminded me of my mother and her journey. I also love this story because it depicts the story of many of the imported people in America. This is a must watch movie. Lisette Feliciano is an amazing director.

This is an amazing film by a young woman who knows her subject inside and out. Her characters are alive and her story involves her own family and herself. Aware as she is of the use of breaking the fourth wall in comedy, she uses it to engage with her audience. I cannot recommend this film enough.

You've come a long way, baby. Reliving life — and lack of choices — for a woman during the '60s and '70s in @WomenIsLosers movie at @heartlandfilm festival, let's never go back. Treat women with respect. And vote like your life depends on it. It truly does. #WomenIsLosers #HIFF30
