FEMME PHOTOGRAPHERS
In a year where the very first woman of African-American and Asian descent (Autumn Durald Arkapaw) is nominated for Best Cinematography at the Oscars, we take a look back at some of the incredible work from women cinematographers all over the world.
This is FEMME PHOTOGRAPHERS: a celebration of other eventual Oscar nominees such as Rachel Morrison & Mandy Walker, as well as other heavy hitters like Kirsten Johnson, Mayrse Alberti, Ellen Kuras and so many more, including two selections from one of Programmer Desmond Thorne’s favorite DPs working today: Claire Mathon.
