April 2012 marks the first instalment of a new, annual programme dedicated to contemporary
British cinema at BFI Southbank: Made in Britain, launching this year, with a spotlight on female
directors. At present, only 14% of British films released in the UK are directed by women, yet the
recent wave of acclaimed and innovative films they have made show female directors are not
only winning awards around the world, but also enjoying box-office success. This showcase of
visionary women directors will include documentary filmmaker and Academy Award nominee
Lucy Walker (including Countdown to Zero, 2010), the celebrated Andrea Arnold (including Fish
Tank, 2009) and Lynne Ramsay (including We Need to Talk About Kevin, 2011) and acclaimed
visual artist Gillian Wearing (Self Made, 2010). Though in the minority, these talented women
explores form and content in radically fresh, thought-provoking ways. In a bid to highlight the
creative imbalance that remains, Carol Morley, Joanna Hogg and Clio Barnard will each appear
on-stage, following screenings of their films at BFI Southbank, to discuss their films, their
careers and what the future may hold.
