Quote:
"We started thinking about our own profession, and the thing that interested us most was wondering if the lack of women filmmakers has in fact influenced the onscreen image of women. We interviewed as many women filmmakers as we could in New York, LA, Vancouver, Montreal, and Toronto. [...] And the one big question that emerged from the interviews was, 'Is the female perspective different from the male perspective?'"
-- Janis Cole
