Equation are pleased to announce a new campaigns project. Coming soon to Nottingham in 2014 Equation will establish a Reel Equality Film Club, dedicated to improving representation of women in film by promoting and celebrating films that give greater screen-time to women’s voices and stories.

At the very least, films selected must pass the Bechdel Test.http://bechdeltest.com/

As of 5/04/2014, Reel Equality Film Club has a planning committee of 5 *fantastic* people made of staff and volunteers. The first Reel Equality screening is scheduled to take place in summer 2014. Make sure to like us on Facebook for the latest news.

In the meantime, the Committee will be busy setting goals, deciding venues and collaboration possibilities galore and of course picking our brilliant *films*!

 

Please email reel.equality@gmail.com if you’d like to contribute your thoughts on any of the above – otherwise watch this space for further information!

The club will also aim to go further than the Test and promote diversity on screen more widely, including better representation of people of varying age, race, class, sexuality, ability and circumstance.

If you’d like to get involved in the planning committee for the club, we will be recruiting again later in 2014. Please see Equation’s opportunities page for more information.
