“What’s Revenge” will be screening Saturday 11/17/2018 in Woodstock, NY along with Germaine Dulac’s “The Smiling Madame Beudet,” a very early feminist film that happens to also be a revenge film ;)
hope to see you there!

Many critical reactions to #MeToo have been similar to the reactions to my film—that people sharing #MeToo stories were oblivious to the complexities and the grey area of implication, that many of the stories shared weren’t that bad, or that the whole business of sharing stories was really about drawing attention to one’s self… essentially, that it was irresponsible for women to be talking about this stuff publicly.
Again, I saw a lack of trust in women to examine our lives, to make our own conclusions about what constitutes misconduct and abuse, and take action as we feel necessary. It was the same mistrust that I experienced when I began examining the desire for revenge in my film.
