This visual documentary combines contemporary and historical perspectives. Viewers will find themselves wanting to delve into coffee-table books or take a trip to a museum. Ask people to name five photographers, from past or present, and chances are that few will think to name a woman. Highlighting Julia Margaret Cameron, Claude Cahun, Dorthea Lange, Lisette Model, Vivian Maier, Christine Spengler, and Nan Goldin-and featuring images from many more female photographers-this film looks at invaluable contributions that women have made to the art form. With photography currently in vogue, it is a fitting time to dedicate a film to women photographers and to set the record straight on their little-known talents.
