S2 Episode 6 - No Room to Fail
Manage episode 338627250 series 2633088
Rintu Thomas is a documentary filmmaker, director-producer, and co-founder of Black Ticket Films.
Rintu discusses the narrow margin for error women have at work–especially when they are one of few in their profession. Her documentary, ‘Writing with Fire’, was the first Indian feature documentary to be nominated for an Academy Award for Best Documentary Feature.
Nonetheless, Rintu feels pressure to succeed to disprove the “See? I told you women can’t do that” side comments that can be overheard about any profession, but especially male-dominated ones. In this conversation, she speaks with Aditi and Christina about the film, depicting female friendships on screen, and how to create more women-friendly production teams (better bathrooms!).
