Empowering Women’s Voices through Film

During our panel discussion, Christina Tynkevich, Maryna Er Gorbach, Pune Parsafar, Rokhsareh Ghaemmaghami and Shahrbanoo Sadat shared their experiences and described the challenges they face as women working in the film industry, particularly in areas of conflict and authoritarian regimes. We discussed the importance of women’s solidarity and networking to facilitate access to funding and reach in the film business, and the need for female voices and stories to be heard in all areas of society. Great have a packed room simply buzzing with creative energy, and I recommend looking into all of their powerful films.
