Location:

|
The Birds Eye View Film Festival is the UK''s first film festival devoted exclusively to women directors. The festival launches at the National Film Theatre on International Women''s Day and continues at the Barbican and the ICA. Films from some of the most exciting up-and-coming women directors are screened during the week-long event which is backed by some of the biggest names in the industry, including patrons Mira Nair, Joanna Lumley, Alison Steadman, Anthony Minghella, Mike Figgis and Juliet Stevenson.
With only seven per cent of directors being female, the festival champions the largely untapped but very real talent that exists among women in an industry traditionally dominated by men.
The programme is made up of innovative and original events including international feature films, short films and documentaries. Highlights in 2007 include a special programme of films made by women from developing countries, an exploration of the intersection between fine art and film, especially composed soundtracks played live to silent films from our earliest women director pioneers at Sound & Silents and a series of training seminars for women filmmakers. Plus parties, director Q&As, eduation events, awards, and much more.
