Women in Cinema and Audiovisual through the Look of Script and Editing

Days: september 16th and 17th
Schedule: 10h-17h (12 hours total)
Location: Casa das Associações (Association’s House)
Rua de Mouzinho da Silveira, 234 Porto
Synopsis:
Two days to talk about films, giving special emphasis to the writing and editing process. We discuss and deconstruct directing as the main role in the creation of a work and make room to talk about what happens before and after filming. We look at the current scenario in terms of women's participation as creators and their figure as a character. How do we see ourselves and how do they see us?
