Citation :
« It may seem like the typical mechanics of a movie shoot, but here, on the set of the film Little Orphans, something remarkable is happening. All the action behind, and in front of, the camera is being driven by women … a woman director, a woman cinematographer, three women stars, women producers and a woman writer/creator. In an industry still dominated by men, both in Canada and abroad, that level of female representation is unusual. Emily Bridger, the film's writer and star, says it wasn't by design, just a 'happy unintentional thing.' 'It's a super-special thing to see. It's really rare, but it's nice to live here in Newfoundland, where it's so supportive of female filmmakers.' She says that support is primarily driven by the Women's Film Festival, which celebrates its 30th anniversary this year. The festival is a sponsor of Little Orphans, along with Telefilm Canada, which awarded the project funding through its Talent to Watch program. »
