About this event

This unflinching documentary explores how women are depicted in film and its effects on discrimination and abuse.

Frequent clips contain nudity, sexual detail and sexual violence, but delivered through an educational lens. Investigates the politics of cinematic shot design, and how this meta-level of filmmaking intersects with the twin epidemics of sexual abuse/assault and employment discrimination against women, with over 175 movie clips from 1896 – 2020.
