And many believe the world deserves much better than...

"...this male-dominated industry that provides the propaganda that keeps patriarchy in power."

"BRAINWASHED: SEX-CAMERA-POWER (Sundance FF 2022) – Review by Marilyn Ferdinand "– ALLIANCE OF WOMEN FILM JOURNALISTS

"If women cannot be heard in a film, it’s only a short leap to silencing them in workplaces, public spaces, and relationships. If women are sexualized and give in to men’s sexual demands with pleasure in the movies without negative consequences, then sexually harassing and raping them in real life won’t seem so wrong."

So, WHY NOT CHANGE?

"Obviously, men at the top of the filmmaking food chain are trying to protect their financial interests, but they are protecting so much more. They are protecting their right to behave however they wish toward the people they consider their inferiors. It will not be easy, but through the education that Brainwashed provides, we can make room for the voices these gatekeepers wish to silence." ~ M. Ferdinand
