Sea Change Weekend

I am delighted to have been invited by Jen Skinner at Screen Argyll to participate in the Sea Change: Powering Women in Film Weekend, reflecting on the state of the industry alongside some exceptional women working in film today.

Speakers include: Catharine Des Forges, Director of the Independent Cinema Office; Terry Wragg, founder of Leeds Animation Workshop; Rona Murray, Women’s Film and Television History Network; Holly Tarquini founder of F–Rated; and Nuala O’Sullivan director of the Women Over 50 Film Festival.

The weekend takes place on 3 and 4 March at Alan Stevenson House on the beautiful Isle of Tiree in Scotland.
