Women@Work Amy Adrion: The Business of Filmmaking
In this interview from the Sundance Film Festival, Laura and Amy Adrion discuss systemic sexism in Hollywood and the challenges women directors face as a result. They explore Amy’s film, Half the Picture, along with her own personal experiences, revealing the surprising similarities between filmmaking and entrepreneurship. Whether it’s the cultural bias against seeing women as leaders and artists, the difficulty in getting funding, or lack of access to next-level opportunities, Amy helps us all see the unique challenges faced by the brave and talented women who are working to tell the stories that help us all make sense of the world in which we live.
