More than a decade after Miss Representation examined the ways mainstream media and popular culture have shaped and constrained women's access to power, director Jennifer Siebel Newsom revisits that urgent inquiry in Miss Representation: Rise Up. Fifteen years later, the forces limiting women's agency have not disappeared -- they have evolved, intensified, and taken root in an increasingly volatile digital landscape. As AI, algorithms, and deepfake technologies reshape the media ecosystem, they are also enabling new forms of gender-based harassment and manipulation aimed at undermining and silencing women and girls. Grounded in the experiences of a new generation, Miss Representation: Rise Up follows young women navigating this shifting terrain, weaving their personal stories together with insights from leaders across media, politics, culture, and academia. Together, they confront the forces working against women’s progress and imagine new pathways toward equity, agency, and power.

Director Jennifer Seibel Newsom, who, as Governor Gavin Newsom’s wife has the title of First Partner of California, never dreamed that a follow-up to her award-winning 2011 film MISS REPRESENTATION would be necessary 15 years later. Unfortunately, it is. Go to Full Review Romey Norton InSession Film 2 days ago
I’m glad this film is taking a stand. If you’re mad, angry, sad, and want change, Miss Representation: Rise Up is a must-watch. Go to Full Review Valerie Kalfrin AWFJ.org Jun 19, 2026
3/5
undoubtedly well-intentioned, but its scope is too ambitious for its own good. It touches on so many harmful effects of social media ... that it feels like it hopscotches around before hitting its mark. Go to Full Review Read all reviews
