With one fell swoop the team of men and women who program the New York Film Festival stuck a pin in the eye of the dudes at Cannes by programming seven, yes seven films directed by women at the upcoming New York Film Festival. That’s almost 22%. The total amount of films being screened in 32, and one of the women directors is a male-female collaboration.

Now the NYFF is not perfect. They have given all the gala slots to male directed films. But I can’t cry too much when they have made a real concerted effort to include a wide diversity of women on their program.

Here are the women directed films:

ARAF — SOMEWHERE IN BETWEEN — Director: Yeşim Ustaoğlu

CAMILLE REWINDS (Camille redouble) — Director: Noémie Lvovsky

FILL THE VOID (Lemale et ha’halal) — Director: Rama Burshtein

GINGER AND ROSA — Director: Sally Potter

LEVIATHAN — Directors: Lucien Castaing-Taylor and Véréna Paravel

LINES OF WELLINGTON (Linhas de Wellington) — Director: Valeria Sarmiento

MEMORIES LOOK AT ME (Ji Yi Wang Zhe Wo) — Director: Song Fang

Here is the full lineup. The festival kicks off on September 28th and runs through October 14th.
