Until women reach a 50-50 parity with men directors, my mission continues to count the women directors in upcoming and recent film festivals (and an occasional informal glance at what’s selling in the markets). Women’s films in Berlin reflect women’s place in the world both in content and in the numbers of women represented as directors, producers, writers, etc. John Cooper of Sundance stresses the increasing and possibly 50-50 parity of women producers, but I am looking at the directors. As March is Women’s History Month (and all the other months are Men’s History Month according to Gloria Steinem’s L.A. Times Article of March 4, 2010) this blog is in honor of all women everywhere.
Congratulations to Kathryn Bigelow for winning the Academy Awards for Best Director and Best Picture. La Times puts into perspective the fact that the Best Director Oscar went to Kathryn Bigelow...

Berlin -- For its 40th birthday, the Berlin Festival's Forum sidebar has tightened its focus, featuring mainly local and Asian filmmakers working outside the mainstream.
German titles in the 2010 Forum lineup, announced Tuesday, include Dominik Graf's huge, eight-hour production "In Angesicht des Verbrechens," (In the Face of Crime), an epic look at Berlin's Russian mafia, which was originally conceived for television. Sticking with crime and punishment, Thomas Arslan's "In the Shadows" follows a thief released from prison looking to pull one last job.
Berlin director Gamma Bak gets personal with "Head Cold," a cinematic essay about her own psychosis; Angela Schanelec explores the small dramas unfolding in an airport departure hall in "Orly;" Tatjana Turanskyj's comedy "The Drifter" is a portrait of a non-conformist in a society of wage slaves; Philip Scheffner's "The Day of the Sparrow" the impact on the homefront of a distant war; and "Sunny Land,...
