Invisible Women

This month’s Spotlight will transport us to 1930s Berlin, as we explore the story of the women behind queer classic Mädchen in Uniform.

After several decades hiatus, Jenny Gilbertson returned to filmmaking in the 1970s. An extraordinary, inspiring second act story.

This Spotlight focuses on filmmaker and writer Kathleen Collins, the great lost-then-found chronicler of race, class and gender in 1980s NY.

Sarah’s story is a simple tragedy of lost potential. Yet despite her tiny body of work, she has become a legend of the indie underground.

This is a fan letter to Kay Mander, who captured our hearts the moment we heard her sassy account of working in the 1940s film industry.

Our first SPOTLIGHT focuses on Ngozi Onwurah, a wildly imaginative filmmaker and first black female director to release a feature in the UK.
