「女人不是天生的，而是社會造成的。」——西蒙波娃。
女性導演們破除成見和束縛，從自身的觀點出發，重新定義女性。
戀愛・電影館在6月10日至25日特別選取歐美、澳洲及日本、香港的8位傑出女導演，放映她們11部精心構思和攝製的作品，希望為觀眾帶來另類選擇，認識更多女導演和她們的作品。我們會以睿智又深情的法國女導演 -- 艾麗絲華妲（Agnès Varda）為本次影展的焦點導演。
作為法國新浪潮之母，她在從未正式學習過電影知識下，拍出了第一部處女作《短角情事》(1995)，是次除放映這部作品外，還會放映她的《無法無家》、《拾穗者與我》及《沙灘上的華妲》共四部電影。
除了華妲，是次選映的其他七部作品分別來自美國、英國、法國、澳洲、日本、比利時和香港的七位優秀女導演，包括：
- 蘇菲亞．哥普拉的《迷失東京》（美國）
- 莎莉．波特的《美麗佳人歐蘭朵》（英國）

女導演們的小簡介：
日本的河瀨直美憑著視覺藝術的造詣，畫面充滿詩意，結合她細緻的說故事技巧，散發濃郁及感人的東方人情味。
跟艾麗絲華妲一樣，同來自法國的克萊雅丹妮，題材涉及政治、社會和種族等，尖銳、大膽又具獨特觀察。
美國女導演蘇菲亞．哥普拉，善於捕捉大都市男女若即若離又瞹味的感情關係。
桑堤艾格曼是比利時女猛將，風格多樣、敢於創新和挑戰傳統。
姬利安．岩士唐則是澳洲女性電影的開荒者，作品內的女性除追求個人夢想和價值之餘，也兼顧世俗，優美大體。
英國的莎莉．波特才情橫溢，關注範疇涉及文學、歷史、身份及社會價值體系的變遷，視野寬廣，結合震撼的影像魅力，意味深遠。
我們還有香港的六、七十年代文青才女唐書璇，其美學和觀察走在時代之前，探討女性在保守時代中的掙扎及自處，藝術及啟發力量無容置疑。

Women always have unique, delicate and deep sense in filmmaking, conveying their feelings toward the worldly matters while men lack these touches.
8 outstanding women directors from Europe, the USA, Australia, Japan and Hong Kong are selected by Cinematheque．Passion and their 11 great films will be screening on 10 - 25 June. We hope the audience can broaden their minds by viewing these alternative artworks. Agnès Varda, “the Ancestor of the New Film Wave” in France, will lead the way in this film festival as her films are creative, passionate, intelligent and rich in content.
Agnès Varda will be the director-in-focus. Without formal filming skills when she directed her debut feature entitled "La Pointe Courte" (1955), Varda influenced many French New Wave directors. Except "La Pointe Courte" , her other 3 films will be screening as well, including: "Vagabond", "The Gleaners and I" and "The Beaches of Agnès".
In addition to Varda’s features, 7 films from 7 outstanding filmmakers hailing from the USA, Great Britain, France, Australia, Japan and Belgium will be screening. They are:
- Sofia Coppola’s Lost in Translation (USA)
- Sally Potter’s Orlando (Great Britain)
- Claire Denis’s 35 Shots of Rum (France)
- Gillian Armstrong’s My Brilliant Career (Australia)
- Naomi Kawase’s An (Japan)
- Chantal Akerman’s 23, Quai Du Commerce, 1080 Bruxelles (Belgium)
- Tong Shu-shuen’s The Arch (Hong Kong).

Naomi Kawase, a filmmaker from Japan, impressed the audience by her poetic visual images and touching storytelling skills. Her films were special in having oriental human sentiments.
Claire Denis, just like Agnès Varda, also comes from France, her films touch on politics and race with critical, audacious and distinct observation.
Sofia Coppola, a USA director, is remarkable in capturing the subtle relationships of urban men and women.
Belgium’s pioneer Chantal Akerman has diverse and innovative styles while challenging the traditional values.
Gillian Armstrong, revered as Australian women films’ founder. Women in her films go after their dreams and maintain good social values at the same time, elegant and charming.
British filmmaker Sally Potter is versatile and her films involved literature, history, identity, values and social changes. Wide visions, powerful visuals with far reaching connotation are her trademarks.
We also have Tong Shu-shuen, a talented Hong Kong filmmaker in the 1960’s and 1970’s. She likes exploring women’s struggle and how they respond the conservative era. Her films are artistic, inspiring with special aesthetics and observations which are definitely ahead of the times.
