CONTEST OPEN TILL JANUARY 15, 2010.
Welcome to Action for Women, the YouTube channel for the film competition for aspiring directors on Violence against Women.
Every day, many women around the world are victims of various types of violence, ranging from sexual abuse to mobbing, from domestic violence to stalking to socio-cultural discrimination. Most of this violence is never reported due to shame or fear but it is a social evil.
The Coucil of Europe and the Italian Chamber of Deputies are involved in an awareness campaign about this problem, a problem that knows no geographic border and leaves no socio-cultural group untouched. The Action for Women competition is part of this campaign.
If you are an aspiring director, participate in this competition by uploading your short on violence and discrimination against women: then show off your artistic abilities to the international film leaders and get started on your new career! A jury of international directors (Jaco Van Dormael, Giuseppe Tornatore, Francesca Comencini, Roberta Torre, Renata Litvinova) will judge the entries and select the finalists. The public will vote for a winner on YouTube!.
The winning short film will be awarded with a special screening at the 67th Venice International Film Festival 2010.
The contest starts at September 15th 2009 and it is open to residents of ITALY, GREAT BRITAIN, FRANCE, SPAIN, GERMANY, RUSSIA, POLAND, THE NETHERLANDS, SWEDEN, IRELAND AND THE CZECH REPUBLIC.
Under the auspices of the Secretary General of the Council of Europe. Ms Maud de Boer-Buquicchio

And I agree with he people who say that violence and abuse of men should be talk about. Not that woman aren't important, but people never talk about violence at men.
