A Permanent History of Women Filmmakers

or several years now, film libraries and archives around the world have been restoring the works of women filmmakers long left in the shadows. This edition reunites seven directors from several continents who, each in her own way, left a mark on the film history of her country. Pioneers who paved the way in some cases; major figures of their national cinema, in others, they brought a singular vision to industries long dominated by men. From Brazil to Hong Kong, from Great Britain to Hungary, this journey reveals the richness – and the fragility – of a heritage still largely misunderstood. We invite you to discover œuvres that are finally reclaiming their rightful place in the history of cinema today.
