Brazil, 2019: the first trimester of the year saw a 76% increase in cases of femicide; São Paulo is the state that kills the most lesbians nationwide; in the past year, over 180 cases of rape per day were recorded; a woman is assaulted every four minutes, 70% of the population from occupations are women. This table gathers a group of women sharing their stories and struggles to prove that, more than data and numbers, this is Brazil’s reality. How to survive this whilst keeping mental health in check?

INVISIBLE WOMEN IN CINEMA
NOV 16 – 5pm @ CCSP – Sala de Ensaio I

Throughout history, cinema has been an art-form ran mostly by men, and to women all that was left was the role of an object depicted through male point of view. Reverting this scenario, we watch the growing professionalization of women behind the scenes. However, amongst this fight there are still minorities struggling for acknowledgment in a field that is as sexist as it is classist: black, lesbian and transgender women. This talk focuses on the obstacles and accomplishments of these professionals that still are invisiblized even within a minority.
