Women are 50.5% of the US population. According to a recent Center for the Study of Women in Television and Film report, women accounted for only 18% of all directors, executive producers, producers, writers, editors, and cinematographers. If we go deeper into the data, we find that 38% of films employed 0 or 1 woman in the abovementioned roles.

Representation by women both behind and in front of the camera remains an opportunity to ensure a more equitable presentation of stories by women for women. In the latest podcast episode, we talk with two filmmakers, Michal Sinnott and Alexandra Clayton, who made 'Unpacking,' a film that explores the radical transformation and the reality of life.
