From women’s history to Brazilian women’s filmmaking

Women have made fewer films than men, although increasingly enhance their production. Still, many of their films were ignored or given little attention to. To understand this imbalance, this article of researcher Karla Holanda (UFJF)  is a panel on the secular discrimination of women in society. It also shows that there has always been resistance to this subjugation of women. The text reinforce the reason to highlight films made by women and discuss three films little know in the history of brazilian cinema, even if they bring stylistic elements, historical and overwhelming thematics – A entrevista (Helena Solberg, 1966), Os homens que eu tive (Tereza Trautman, 1973) e Feminino Plural (Vera de Figueiredo, 1976).
