In Marie Mandy's humble documentary, we are reminded that film belongs to women as much as to men. Women create. Women are
made to create. Create art. Create change. Create life itself.
Here are the directors Mandy chooses to showcase:
•
Agnes Varda •
Moufida Tlatli •
Jeanne Labrune •
Deepa Mehta •
Patricia Rozema •
Paule Baillargeon •
Francesca Comencini •
Jane Campion •
Sally Potter •
Léa Pool •
Doris Dörrie •
Liliana Cavani (🤤)
•
Safi Faye •
Carine Adler Added to my

**Agnes Varda
**A woman must not be defined by the onlooker, by men's eyes, by men who have oppressed her; by her father, husband, lover, brother who look at her.
She, who's gotten used to it, to existing through that look, her mirror.
The first feminist gesture is to say: "Okay, they're looking at me. But I'm looking at them." The act of deciding to look, of deciding that the world is not defined by how people see me but how I see them.

**Paule Baillargeon
**Women haven't had the leisure of real desire. We were told what to desire. We were forced for hundreds and thousands of years, and that's all in us, that heritage.

**Liliana Cavani
**I don't like dialogues that much. I prefer what can be expressed through images. In a relationship, I don't think it's necessary to talk all the time. What's interesting is the moment of expression and how express ourselves with our body.
