Overview

Melodrama, memory, classic genres and tense emotions come under the spotlight in the fourth programme of the documentary. Women’s contribution to science-fiction, squirm-making horror and unbearably tense thrillers ranges from Rachel Talalay’s Tank Girl to Marleen Gorris’s A Question Of Silence via Carol Morley’s Dreams Of A Life and Ida Lupino’s Outrage. Gems of memory and time take us to the work of Chantal Akerman, Maria Plyta and Mati Diop. Filled with names you will know and filmmakers that go to the top of the list of talents you are keen to explore further
