women of cinema

There is no evil that does not come for good and perhaps this situation we are experiencing will serve to project to the public some projects that the network of networks hides.. Among these projects is Women of Cinema, an initiative that, since the year 2010, has been promoting cinema made by women on the Internet. The festival has an official section, in which we can see online up to thirteen pieces that mix works already released in theaters with other less known ones, but they have been through other festivals. Among the first we find The thief's daughter by Belén Funes, o Paradise Hills, Alice Waddington. Among the latter we can choose between Haiti, by Liliana Torres and Sofi Escudé, Ainhoa, I'm not that by Carolina Astudillo, best documentary at last year's Malaga Festival, Molt by Ana Schulz and Cristóbal Fernández, The Perseids by Ànnia Gabarró and Alberto Dexeus, Life without Sara Amat the Laura Jou, Barcelona Festival audience award, o The Portuguese by Rita Azevedo Gomes, which passed through Berlin and the Mar de Plata Festival and winner of the grand prize at the Gran Canaria Film Festival.

In addition to the official section, They guard a collection of films directed by women, among which we find, among other, Ai Weiwei: never sorry by Alison Klayman, Exist by Lucrecia Martel, Yesterday never ends by Isabel Coixet Brava by Roser Aguilar. And three parallel sections: Even in the best families, with titles like with the wind of Meritxell Colell or They are all dead by Beatriz Sanchís; impassable, which includes Most beautiful island de Ana Asensio o Thirty Lights by Diana Toucedo; y We also have, con Boxing for freedom by Silvia Venegas and Juan Antonio Moreno or Agata's friends de Marta Verheyen, Alba Cros, Laia Alabart and Laura Rius. Finally, the festival pays tribute to the veteran filmmaker Helena Taberna, author, among other, of Yes, with ten of his works. G.LEON
