The REAL Story of Reel Women with Jodie Foster

Based on the groundbreaking edition, Reel Women: THE FIRST HUNDRED YEARS, by Ally Acker, JODIE FOSTER takes us on a sweeping journey that looks at the remarkable achievements of female filmmakers from 1896 into the 21st century who transformed the way we look at movies. Using rare footage, and exclusive interviews with filmmakers all over the globe, Reel Herstory corrects the notion that women behind the scenes held adjunct or peripheral careers, and restores them rightfully to their pioneering status.

Reel Herstory: The Real Story of Reel Women is an unforgettable look at pioneering women in all crafts behind the scenes who helped shape the history of motion pictures, but whose contributions have been long ignored.
