NOTES

Title from title frames

In this bold documentary Marie Mandy asks the question: how do women directors film love, desire, and, especially, sexuality? In rare interviews with many of the leading women directors working in the world today, FILMING DESIRE directly engages the sexual politics of cinematographic choice. Powerfully illustrated with film clips from their own work, the directors discuss the reality of an explicit women’s point of view, the possibility of a women’s cinematic language, and the desire in their films to ‘fantasize and dream a new image of themselves’. This documentary weaves an intriguing essay that is international in scope and reflective of the great diversity of women filmmakers. Official Selection at the **Boston International Women's Film Festival**
