Description
Fascinating conversations took place at Barnard College's (NYC) Athena Film Festival last month about women, representation & the power of inclusion at all roles of storytelling. Plus how we can change today's norm. Themes and storytelling at film festivals are universal, so their application and intersection with TV is what prompted me to share observations. Athena founder Melissa Silverstein of Women & Hollywood was interviewed for episode: Ten Years of Women and Hollywood. Quick takes on documentaries: Bombshell: The Hedy Lamarr Story and I Am Evidence, produced by Law and Order SVU's Mariska Hargitay through her Joyful Heart Foundation. Leaders of stage, digital, academia & film addressed "revising the Canon" - & how we shift the acceptable norms of storytelling.
