ViewChange: Crossing the Gender Gap
Compared with men, the lives of women are so often hidden: behind tradition; poverty; and isolation. Compared with men, the stories of women just aren't told. But these documentaries are different: they put women in front of the lens and behind it. And through photography, film, and even animation, they show us what it means to be a woman in the poorest countries in the world. Take a look across the global gender gap, and see the Grand Prize winner of ViewChange Film Contest.
