NewFilmmakers Los Angeles (NFMLA) hosts its March Monthly Film Festival and celebrates up-and-coming female talent in front of and behind the camera with this month’s InFocus: Female Cinema across two shorts programs and the Los Angeles premiere of Pamela J. Hogan’s documentary The Day Iceland Stood Still.
The day’s programming opens with the Los Angeles premiere of Emmy and Peabody award-winning filmmaker and journalist Pamela J. Hogan’s The Day Iceland Stood Still, a lively telling of the 1975 nationwide women’ s strike in Iceland that began Iceland’s journey to its current place as #1 globally on the gender parity index. “We hope this untold story will inspire viewers for generations to come to reimagine the possible!” says Hogan.
