About The Event
CALL TO ACTION: Women of Colour On and Behind The Camera is a curated programme by Reclaim The Frame, a charity championing marginalised perspectives in cinema, connecting with audiences through community building and conversation. This season centres women of colour working in the action genre from the 90s to the present - both behind the camera: as writers and directors - and on screen: as actors and stunt performers.
These films serve as a jumping point to reflect on the realities of women holding intersectional identities through stories of friendship, revenge, coming of age, and ultimately, the empowerment to stand true to themselves. In a genre historically not used to tell these stories, CALL TO ACTION aims to reclaim action for diverse and intersectional audiences.
