The Long Road to the Director’s Chair

The Long Road to the Director's Chair

Vibeke Løkkeberg

The First International Women’s Film Seminar, organised by filmmakers Claudia von Alemann and Helke Sander in 1973, can be regarded as one of the very first feminist film festivals. Norwegian filmmaker and former actress Vibeke Løkkeberg attended it, bringing a camera crew to document this pivotal event. Unearthed nearly 50 years later, the forgotten footage reveals a treasure trove of stories that capture the struggles, ambitions and dreams of women entering a male-dominated industry.
