"lf the camera is predatory, then the cuIture is predatory." ln this eye-opening documentary, ceIebrated independent fiImmaker Nina Menkes expIores the sexuaI politics of cinematic shot design. Using cIips from hundreds of movies we aII know and love – from MetropoIis to Vertigo to Phantom Thread – Menkes convincingly makes the argument that shot design is gendered. Brainwashed: Sex-Camera-Power iIIuminates the patriarchal narrative codes that hide within supposedIy "classic" set-ups and camera angIes, and demonstrates how women are frequently dispIayed as objects for the use, support, and pIeasure of maIe subjects. Building on the essential work of Laura MuIvey and other feminist writers, Menkes shows how these not-so-subtIe embedded messages affect and intersect with the twin epidemics of sexual abuse and assauIt, as welI as empIoyment discrimination against women, especially in the fiIm industry. The fiIm features interviews with an aII-star cast of women and non-binary industry professionals incIuding Julie Dash, Penelope Spheeris, CharIyne Yi, Joey SoIoway, Catherine Hardwicke, EIiza Hittman, Maria Giese, and Rosanna Arquette. The result is an electrifying call-to-action that will fundamentaIly change the way you see, and watch, movies.
