Independent Female Filmmakers collects original and previously
published essays, interviews, and manifestos from some of the most
defining and groundbreaking independent female filmmakers of the
last 40 years. Featuring material from the seminal magazine The
Independent Film and Video Monthly-a leading publication for
independent filmmakers for several decades-as well as new
interviews conducted with the filmmakers, this book, edited by
Michele Meek, presents a unique perspective into the ethnically and
culturally diverse voices of women filmmakers whose films span
narrative, documentary, and experimental genres and whose work
remains integral to independent film history from the 1970s to the
present. Independent Female Filmmakers also includes a biographical
profile of each filmmaker, as well as an online resource with links
to additonal interviews and a sample course syllabus. The
filmmakers in this book include: * Lisa Cholodenko (High Art, The
Kids Are All Right) * Martha Coolidge (Valley Girl, Real Genius,
Introducing Dorothy Dandridge) * Cheryl Dunye (The Watermelon
Woman, Stranger Inside) * Miranda July (The Future, Me And You And
