What Half the Picture Is About
The documentary speaks with women directors working in Hollywood, each of them describing her own work, her life and her career. The starting point of the account is a simple question: with so many capable directors, why are they given so little work. Those who speak describe hiring processes, differences in budget, and how a woman director whose film is counted a failure is never called again. The film builds that picture on individual experience and, rather than generalising, lays example upon example. It was made at a time when this argument had come into the open. Amy Adrion’s ninety four minute American documentary was completed in 2018.
