As Hollywood works to incorporate more women in front of and ramazanda porno izlemek orucu bbozarm?behind the camera, Netflix has launched the category "Because She Watched" with UN Women. Because She Watched, launched ahead of International Women's Day, features content created by and for women and is curated by entertainment powerhouses.
The collection consists of movies and TV shows that inspired women in entertainment around the world, including Sophia Loren, Janet Mock, Salma Hayek, Yalitza Aparicio, Millie Bobby Brown, Mindy Kaling, Laurie Nunn, Lana Condor, Petra Costa, and Ava DuVernay. The collection, which includes content that Netflix says "started important, often hard, conversations that have helped to challenge the way we see the world" will be available to stream all year on Netflix.
Laverne Cox, who selected Brené Brown: The Call to Courage, a documentary about choosing courage over comfort, also noted the importance of Orange is the New Blackfor her career.
“Orange Is the New Blackis the first project where I felt genuinely empowered as a woman thanks to the woman at the helm of the show, Jenji Kohan, and the many women directors, writers, producers, and crew members as well as the stories that centered diverse women in an unprecedented way," said Cox in a Netflix statement. "This show created a space and platform for me as a black openly trans woman that created space for other openly trans women of all races to be truly seen in the depth of our humanity.”
The theme of creating space was echoed by UN Women Deputy Executive Director Anita Bhatia.
"This collaboration is about taking on the challenge of telling women’s stories and showing women in all their diversity" said Bhatia. "It’s about making visible the invisible, and proving that only by fully representing and including women on screen, behind the camera and in our narratives overall, society will truly flourish."
