Female Gaze

Female Gaze

If you are to believe film history, women mostly function as plot devices, lust objects or support for strong male protagonists. It took a while before film caught up to reality, but in the two short film compilations themed around the female gaze, nothing remains of this outdated worldview. The filmmakers peel back the layers of a groundbreaking orange, rewrite familiar red-hooded fairy tales, and dig deep beneath the archeological surface. In the context of Europalia España there is an aditional Female Gaze programme featuring Spanish makers. Expect a programme that thoroughly challenges the average film's perspective.
