Jennifer K. Stuller on May 26, 2012 in UncategorizedGreat stuff in Seattle this weekend as Wonder Women! The Untold History of American Superheroines comes to Seattle’s International Film Festival for its West Coast Debut!
That means this weekend you have three opportunities to see a 30 foot Ink-Stained Amazon!
More importantly, that’s three chances to see Wonder Women! The Untold Story of American Superheroines at the Seattle International Film Festival!
WONDER WOMEN! will also be part of a free panel during the Seattle International Film Festival (SIFF) titled “Sheroes in Media: Women and Girls Changing the Game.” It will take place Saturday, May 26, 7:30 p.m. at the SIFF Film Center.
Join Kristy Guevara-Flanagan: Director, WONDER WOMEN!; Jennifer K. Stuller: Author, Ink-Stained Amazons and Cinematic Warriors: Superwomen in Modern Mythology and Programming Director for GeekGirlCon; Daniel Tayara: Reel Grrls youth filmmaker; Megan Gaiser, Chief Creative Strategy Officer and former CEO of Her Interactive, and Marta Smith, IGNITE: Inspiring Girls Now In The Technology Evolution, as they discuss how women, both real and fictional, are represented in American culture. Who influences and controls the media messages we receive about strong women – and how are they internalized by consumers? The event is open to the public.
