CAMERA FEMINA’s name plays on both the idea of the lens-based and the Latin word for “chamber” or “room” — a nod to Virginia Woolf’s A Room of One’s Own. This site was founded by film artist Maya Han to promote the visibility of moving images by and about women and historically marginalized genders by highlighting noteworthy works and their NYC-area screenings and exhibitions. While we try to be comprehensive and inclusive, we may have missed something. We welcome your suggestions, questions (or compliments!) either below or at:  camerafemina.net (at) gmail (dot) com.
