Hello list members! Women Make Movies, a multicultural, multiracial, feminist media arts organization located in New York, is proud to present a very special collection of films and videos that shed light on violence against women and help situate such violence within the context of human rights. As we have witnessed the power of documentaries to raise awareness and compel action, WMM is offering organizations participating in the 16 Days Campaign a very special discount on all titles related to violence against women for use in 16 Days related events. Featured in this collection is Lourdes Portillo's extraordinary film SENORITA EXTRAVIADA, a groundbreaking investigation into the mysterious murders of more than 300 women in Juarez, Mexico. Portillo relies on testimonies of the families of victims as she unravels the layers of complicity that have allowed for these brutal murders to occur. SENORITA EXTRAVIADA brings issues of violence against women to the international arena and is one of the many powerful documentaries that serve as invaluable tools in helping create a global culture that says no to violence.
