In the Director's Chair Sits a Woman

Produced with the support of Gesher Multicultural Film Fund, Rabinovich Foundation - Cinema Project, Bouras - House for Independent Art, Kivunim - Beer Sheva, Cinema South Festival - Sapir Academic College

26 women who directed narrative feature films in Israel are sharing their own personal experience of sitting in the Director’s Chair. From Ellida Geyra – Israel’s first female fiction filmmaker, to present-day female directors – they echo each other, clash and come apart, only to reconnect again. Their stories create a diverse and cinematic  patchwork quilt of female directors, providing us with a multifaceted reflection of any woman who wishes for her story to be heard
