BRAINWASHED: SEX-CAMERA-POWER takes us on an eye-opening journey through the gendered politics of shot design in Hollywood movies. Using more than 175 film clips from Hollywood favorites and cult classics as well as interviews with filmmakers and scholars, filmmaker Nina Menkes unveils a framework of misogyny and paternalism. From early cinema to the present day, this bias infiltrates our favorite films and impacts the ongoing epidemic of sexual harassment and assault, and employment discrimination against women.
