‘Reel Women is a group of Melbourne film workers who have been in operation since August 1979. The group is involved in the production, distribution and exhibition of women’s films in Melbourne and interstate. The group was formed firstly as a contact point for women film makers who had previously worked in isolation, and secondly as a distribution network for their films. We hope to foster a film culture that presents alternative images and experiences of women to the mainstream media.’
