Day - 13 Women's Month - Birds Eye View Festival

Last night, I attended the closing night of the Birds Eye View Film Festival in London.  The Festival celebrates women filmmakers.  We went to see Whip It, dir. by Drew Barrymore, which is a good girl coming-of-age film about roller derby.

There were some awesome films highlighted last night that I wanted to mention here as most of us will never have the chance to see them unless we go looking:

Junior, dir. by Jenna Rosher
Lourdes, dir. by Jessica Hausner
The Door, dir. by Juanita Wilson
Slaves, dir. by Hanna Hellborn and David Aronowitsch

I didn't find out about the Festival until last week, which was disappointing.  However, you can sign up for their mailing list here:  http://www.birds-eye-view.co.uk/2/home/homepage.html
