Women in the Martial Arts: Our Images on Screen and Lives off Screen

The discussion will include video clips and critiques of the cinematic representations of women in film and television, and the real-life issues raised by the #MeToo and #TimesUp protests.

The program opens with welcoming remarks by Warrington Hudlin, Vice Chairman of the Museum of the Moving Image and curator of the Fist and Sword martial arts film series. A reception with live music by a jazz quartet follows the discussion.
