Female artistic

auteur cinema

and video art

Female artistic auteur cinema is based on the cinema of participation, love, and the co-interpretation of both the individual and social voices of women. They are accompanied by constant exploration and experience and the recording of the image stops between an existential and stable and a very subtle and expressive, even impulsive look.

We are talking about emotions that accompany selected authors as well as co-authors of cinema, film, video and about emotions which dominate and make the viewer see femininity anew with increased attention.

Both film and video art as well as performative creativity of women is not only a permanent part of their lives but also a proof that they co-create the indelible and bold potential of artistic and authorial cinema.
