| Women Behind the Camera
Films and videos by women have always been an important part of the festival. To celebrate past accomplishments and encourage future ones, this year the festival takes the opportunity to highlight entries by women filmmakers. Though Hollywood largely remains a boy's club, the last ten years have seen more independent films by women, and more women working behind the camera in all areas of production and in all genres. The issue-based documentary has been and remains a favourite among women filmmakers since the early 70s. Yet increasingly women filmmakers are branching out not only in the themes they explore but the way in which they explore them. Indeed, the films showing at this years festival demonstrate the diverse and complex themes todays women filmmakers are addressing, as well as the innovative and intriguing ways in which they approach their chosen subjects.
