While there has been progress, it's clear there are still systemic issues resulting in less gender diversity in productions both here in Australia and throughout the world. That's why we're excited to bring you our session 'Reframing Audrey' to you this year at MWFF.

In recognition of today as #InternationalWomensDay, we wanted to share a little more about the current state of gender equity in filmmaking.
