She is the founder of Europe's first feminist party: Gudrun Schyman. In her home country Sweden, everybody has an opinion about her - superhero or villain. She has been through all the ups and downs of politics: a social worker rising to lead the Leftist party to record breaking election results. At the same time, she tries to find a balance between her private and public life, struggling with her roles as a mother, a wife and a politician.
Through it all, Schyman has remained fiercely, unapologetically feminist, constantly working to raise the bar for equality in Sweden and in Europe.
