The media can be an instrument of change: it can maintain the status quo and reflect the views of the society or it can, hopefully, awaken people and change minds. I think it depends on who’s piloting the plane.”

- Katie Couric, Journalist

The first step in fixing a problem is creating awareness, the next is taking action.

Together we can take action.

This acclaimed documentary, Official 2011 Sundance Selection, shows how women are misrepresented by the media and its negative effects on society’s perception of women.  The ramifications extend to girls’ self-esteem, boys’ perception of girls and likewise how this has resulted in the lack of women holding positions of power.
