6.30pm: Panel Discussion with Professional Female Filmmakers

 

Why is there no female filmmakers?

A panel of experienced  female filmmakers will talk about what it's like to work in this industry as a woman, through their films and their career. Confirmed names include the very successful artist Cecilia Stenbom (photo), who recently won the “Visual Artist of the Year” Journal Culture Award (films include The Case, System, see http://www.ceciliastenbom.se/), Ellie Land, acclaimed animation filmmaker who specialises in animated documentaries (films include Centrefold and Everything was Life, see http://ellieland.com/), and Magali Pettier, filmmaker and photographer who is just finishing her first feature film, Addicted to Sheep (https://www.facebook.com/addictedtosheep?fref=ts)

 

7.30pm: Break and Drinks

 

After the panel discussion we'll have drinks in the bar, an opportunity to network and talk to other fellow filmmakers!

 

8.30pm: Open Film Night

 

This will be an opportunity for local women filmmakers to bring short films they’ve made, to show them on a big screen, and to introduce and discuss them! Men are welcome to attend and watch the films!

 

So if you’re a woman and that you make films, whether you are an experienced filmmaker or an amateur, whether you’ve made 15 films or only ever made 1, you’re welcome to come and show your short film – the film just has to be 10 minutes long maximum.

 

Any questions: whitemaneproduction@gmail.com

Friendly warning: MEN are welcome to attend! Only films by women will be shown, but men are welcome to come and mingle!
