Do you know only 9% of movies are directed by women? In recent years, there has been an outcry and concerted effort to expand women’s presence and visibility behind the camera throughout Hollywood.

Gals Guide to the Galaxy is addressing the gap at a local level with a unique event, by partnering with Directed by Women Catalyst to put Hamilton County on the world-wide viewing map.
