Special guest: Award-winning filmmaker Anna Ginsburg, discussing her recent contribution to Channel 4’s Random Acts short film initiative Private Parts, produced in collaboration with It’s Nice That. The film is a stark exploration of perceptions, double standards and sensitivity as regards female sexuality, made to “counteract the impact of our misogynistic hyper sexualised society”. With upcoming festival screenings including Encounters and Ottawa, the film is a collaborative effort making use of animation talents Will Anderson, Mark Prendergast, Peter Millard, George Wheeler, Loup Blaster and Moth Collective as well as Anna herself.
