I wrote this interview four years ago but it never really reached the right audience which is the women of all nationalities as there is no place on earth where women’s rights have not been violated or where women do not continue their struggle to gain economic and political parity with men. This interview gives some historic perspective to women’s issues, to women in cinema and film making and also a lot of information about the evolution of cinema during the Pahlavi regime and now as well as post war Italian cinema and now as well as Hollywood of the ’50’s and now. The issues it discusses are universal and timeless and so they will always be relevant today or a 100 years hence.
