Along the way, female filmmakers will have the feeling that they're not good enough. And that's really just a result of being "otherized" from the moment they're born. Keep an eye out for all those insecurities, and even expect them. Borrow white male privilege and just move through the world as if it was created for you.

You have to create that space for yourself over and over again. Every hour sometimes.

The main hangup in the world today is hypocrisy and insecurity. If people can't face up to the fact of other people being naked or smoking pot, or whatever they want to do, then we're never going to get anywhere.

If everyone practiced being themselves instead of pretending to be what they aren't, there would be peace.
John Lennon
The Beatles
