Where to start? I’m going to keep this positive, and apart to say the climate is fucked, I have enjoyed working with Create2030 at United Nations which is dialogue for incorporating the Sustainable Development Goals into the arts and filmmaking. This is an awareness to the re-distribution of wealth, poverty, climate change issues, equality, inclusivity and diversity. Regards our industry? That despite the Me Too Movement, and thankfully people seem to be listening, still nothing in terms of work employment and equal pay are changing — the statistics for female directors for example is the same 4% to 96% male directors since 1998. Watch The Other Half of the picture with leading TV director Rachel Feldman and other great female directors, hear what they have to say. It’s important.
