The latest film of Helena Bonham Carter, Meryl Streep and Carey Mulligan's "Sufragette" is making waves not just because of its controversial story but also of its strong feminism. The three stars brought the revolutionary moment in history to life again as some even did their protests on the film's premiere night.

The 30-year-old English actress played the role of "Maud Watts," a laundry worker in the pre-first world war in London who's trying to avoid the women's right movements for the love of her family, according to The Guardian. However, the time comes that she needed to testify about how she's doing with her life and work conditions, she just found herself in the middle of the confusion with violence imprisonment and worse.

Influenced by the character of Brendan Gleeson as "Inspector Seed," "Maud" together with her army sisters took their way to fight for the women's rights to vote, to be heard and to be independent. Meryl, on the other hand, was "Emmeline Pankhurst" and Helena acted as "Edith Ellyn," who fueled the movement to spark.

Moreover, the opening night and the start of the BFI London Film Festival, of the British historical film on Oct. 7 was interrupted by the modern day suffragettes, E! Online reported. They made their way to lie down on the red carpet to protest domestic violence while about 100 women joined the demonstration.

The Sisters Uncut group wore dark outfits with written "dead women don't vote" in green and purple colored on their pants and even chanted the printed note. The protest lasted for about 10 minutes while green and purple smoke bombs were seen nearby.

Meanwhile, some of the actors had a hard time to be heard by the crowd because of the ongoing rally while some even owned the disturbance, Telegraph noted. "That is exactly what the suffragettes were about. Hopefully the film will inspire anybody who feels an injustice has been done, to be bold enough to protest," the 49-year-old CBE said.

Romala Garai told reporters: "I'm happy to see the suffrage movement is alive and happening." Additionally, aside from the controversial opening, "Sufragette" stars are now facing another controversy.

The publication added that the actresses were seen wearing statement shirts, which read "I'd rather be a rebel than a slave." The slogan quickly sparked a Twitter noise as some said that it is offensive and finds the Suffragette movement of being racist, enslaving black people before.
