A FESTIVAL LIKE THIS YOU REALLY NEED, THESE GIRLS DON'T FEED INTO CORPORATE GREED! THEY ROCK THE WORLD WITH STYLE AND GRACE, THESE VIDEOS ARE IN YOUR FACE! TO TAKE THIS STEP THEY ARE BRAVE AND BOLD, TO GO AGAINST THE GRAIN AND BREAK THE MOLD! MAKING MOVIES CAN BE HARD, AND THESE GIRLS TAKE THE EXTRA YARD. SO WE ARE GRATEFUL WE GOT HIRED, MOTIVATED, AND INSPIRED. HAVING THIS EXPERIENCE MADE US GLAD, SO WATCH THESE MOVIES, THEY ARE RAD!
Females directed only one out of ten Hollywood films in 2001. With numbers like these, it's easy for young women to be discouraged. The filmmakers of the 2003 Girls in the Director's Chair festival begin to break these odds, while giving us a rare chance to experience the unique insights of young women. From Matrix-like action to softhearted romance, this program has something for everyone. It is an honor to be involved in a festival that highlights the talents of young females. We hope that you will find these films just as encouraging as we did.
