For the first time ever, over half the films presented at #afifest were directed by women. It was an incredible year, and since I was volunteering I only got to watch a handful of films, but I saw multiple masterpieces in a short span of time. It was a pleasure witnessing several female auteurs begin to emerge. Keep an eye out for these incredible films/filmmakers. #thebodyrememberswhentheworldbrokeopen #babyteeth #hala #kathleenhepburn #ellemáijátailfeathers #shannonmurphy #minhalbaig #changingthechairs ...

Posted withrepost • klaudiareynicke Work is a reflection on who we are, by sitting in the director's chair #women are able to create from their point of view. Furthermore, it sets an example for other women to do the same thing. #Filmmaking is still male dominated, to have a woman director also creates a ripple effect of employment of more women behind-the-scenes.
Here some #film set #pictures of SOME of the wonderful female professionals that helped me create Love Me tender.
#ChangingTheChairs #AFIFEST #DriveProgress
In 2018, for every 22 major films directed by a man, only one was directed by a woman. But this year, 14 of the top 100 #blockbuster films could be directed by women – a significant move toward more inclusion behind the camera.

Le foto sono molte di più e le trovate sul profilo di klaudiareynicke che ha scritto il post di seguito.
Io posso ripostarne una e per ora scelgo questa, perché troppo spesso ultimamente dimentico la lezione più importante che Seconda mi ha dato:
L’unico modo per vincere una battaglia che sembra invincibile è non smettere mai di fare ciò che si ama.
Grazie.
