Call for Entries: The Athena Film Festival (February 10-13, 2011)

Film is a medium known to most people in nearly every part of the world. Films have power. They create conversation. They reveal truths. They inspire. And that is why Barnard College is proud to launch the Athena Film Festival, a world-class celebration of film and the women who write and direct them, who are behind the camera, in front of the camera, and in the industry at-large.

Through feature films, documentaries, and shorts, the Festival will explore what makes a leader. Is it the ability to inspire people to fight injustice or stand up for the rights of those who are powerless? The festival will examine the values women leaders share-vision, courage, resilience-and explore leadership across race, class, and culture. The Festival will highlight the wide diversity of women's leadership in both real life and the fictional world, illuminating the sometimes passionate, sometimes agonizing stories of women from across the globe who have made a difference in their countries and communities. Our goal is to open a robust presumed about women and leadership: what it takes to excel, collaborate, lead, and inspire.
