Women at the Helm

In a pivotal year for Australian film and television, female creators are steering the industry into bold new territory. Women at the Helm brings together some of the most exciting and influential women working behind the screen, including directors, writers, producers and showrunners, to explore what it takes to guide stories from script to screen, how leadership shapes creative direction, and why representation behind the camera matters as much as what is in front of it. Speakers include Tracey Vieira, producer at Hoodlum, whose work spans both film and television, alongside AACTA Award nominees Leela Varghese and Emma Hough Hobbs, creators of the acclaimed animated feature Lesbian Space Princess. More speakers to be announced.
