This Changes Everything

Tom Donahue VS 2018 97 min.

Hollywood is a perfect microcosm that can hold a mirror to our society. That mirror is not always flattering. This Changes Everything reveals how gender inequality is firmly embedded in the film industry. It is still a man's world, where women have to fight hard for their place. And it used to be so different: in the period of silent films, most directors were women. What has changed? Why? And what can be done about it?
