Canada, 2018 (documentary, 164 minutes, colour, French)
Also known as "Contemporary Women Filmmakers: The State of Things"

Film Description:
"Concerned with recent debates on the discrimination of women in the film industry, this documentary raises questions, while offering a voice to women and their cinema. The film features conversations with well-known women directors, including Catherine Breillat, Claire Denis, Mira Nair, Margarethe Von Trotta, Ulrike Ottinger, Micheline Lanctôt, Rakshnan Bani-Etemad and María Novaro, as well as the stories of women directors who are less visible to the general public. Joining the filmmakers are the voices and comments of producers, film specialists and archivists through whom our images are meticulously preserved."
