Agnes Varnum points to the International Museum of Women’s Online Film Festival, through which you can watch a new film by a female director every day through the month of October. There’s some good stuff, including The Grace Lee Project, and a fascinating short documentary that I just watched by Turkish filmmaker Melis Birder called The Tenth Planet: A Single Woman’s Life in Baghdad. Filmmaker Melis Birder went to Baghdad in January 2004 looking for a story, and found one in the social life of her translator, an unmarried 20-something working woman named Kawkab. Kawkab and her friends and family speak incredibly candidly about sex, marriage, Sunni/Shia conflict, the difficulties of an infant democracy, and life in Baghdad after the U.S. occupation. Watch it here, and for more information on the film, see its official website.
