The future is female in this shorts program! Featuring films both starring and directed by women, this stellar slate of documentary and narrative stories highlights the power and strength of women from all walks of life. In Salam, a female Lyft driver navigates the streets of New York City while waiting to hear news from her family in Syria. Period. End of Sentence. focuses on a group of women in Northern India who set out to destigmatize menstruation in their community. A 97 year-old lady auditions for America’s Got Talent in Death Metal Grandma. We learn about the mother of animation and inventor of the multiplane camera in Lotte, That Silhouette Girl. And in Counterfeit Kunkoo, a woman’s single-status makes renting an apartment virtually impossible. IN PERSON: Director Rayka Zehtabchi.
