From the earliest days of cinema, women have demonstrated their prowess as masterful filmmakers, tackling virtually every behind-the-scenes role imaginable on films ranging from melodramatic morality tales to sci-fi/Western mash-ups. Women have truly done it all. Yet, women remain dramatically under-employed in the world of studio filmmaking. In 2008, women comprised only 9% of directors and 12% of writers working on the top 250 domestic grossing films (The Celluloid Ceiling). Film festivals have proven to be far more welcoming venues for storytellers, who happen to be women. According to a study conducted last year by The Center for the Study of Women in Television and Film at San Diego State University, behind-the-scenes women accounted for 22% of directors and 19% of writers working on feature-length films appearing at festivals (Independent Women).
Independent features and documentaries screening at festivals like the San Diego Latino Film Festival offer invaluable opportunities for women filmmakers and audiences to intermingle, sharing perspectives and insights into the human condition that may not align with the current interests of studios increasingly beholding to corporate imperatives and narrow audience demographics. For audiences seeking out the unique and diverse, the festival experience excels. The San Diego Latino Film Festival is proud to present the following films as part of the Cine Mujer celebration. Enjoy.
