WOMEN IN FILM
Moderated by Richard Vetere
Sponsored by Women In Film & Television and followed by WIFT reception
Since the advent of the moving image, women have made significant contributions both in front
of and behind the camera. At every point in the evolution of the film industry, women have
offered their guidance and insight. Yet even today their role is often obscured in a male
dominated industry.
Women such as experimental filmmaker Maya Deren to commercial success story Penny
Marshall have had their achievements attached to a male predecessor of significant power. Do
women in film have to mediate their careers through a male figure? How have women
contributed to film outside the patriarchal establishment? Is it easier for women to take the lead
in the industry today rather than taking the traditional role in film-making process as actress,
editor or script supervisor (all traditionally female career-paths in the industry)? These are some
of the questions the "Women In Film" panel will address. Please join this lively discussion along
with our panelists.
Panelists: Isil Bagdadi, Gianna Palminteri, Suzanne Weinert, Debra Eisenstadt
