Thanks for all the great suggestions so far. To answer Elizabeth's
question -- these are some of the topics the instructor is looking to
explore over the course of the semester, so no, she's not expecting to
find films that cover all these in one title. She's looking for a
handful of films from different world cinemas from 2008 or so forward.
Best,
Meghann

*Subject:* [Videolib] Collective Brain: Gender Issues in Foreign
Feature Films
Hi All,
My annual appeal to the collective brain:
I have a women's studies instructor who teaches a class on gender
issues in world film each fall. She tries to use all new titles each
semester, and it can be a challenge for her to find a new slate each
year. Any recent releases that come to mind would be greatly
appreciated. Here are the topics / areas that are of particular
interest for her: "intersexuality, reproductive rights, marriage
choice, prostitution, religion and cultural gendered practices."
She is ONLY interested in feature films -- not documentaries.
Thanks in advance,

issues relating to the selection, evaluation,
acquisition,bibliographic control, preservation, and use of current
and evolving video formats in libraries and related institutions. It
is hoped that the list will serve as an effective working tool for
video librarians, as well as a channel of communication between
libraries,educational institutions, and video producers and distributors.
