Krista Calvo & Colleen Laird on Doing Women’s (Global) (Horror) Film History

The Video Essay Podcast

Today's episode is the first in a series of conversations on videos created as part of the project, Doing Women’s (Global) (Horror) Film History (DWGHFH), a year-long video essay mentoring and training program that culminated in a videographic special issue of MAI: Feminism & Visual Culture. Led by Alison Peirse, DWGHFH features the work of thirty contributors on "women horror filmmakers in non-anglophone countries, with a particular focus on filmmakers from the Global Majority."

This episode features a conversation with Krista Calvo, the creator of "Dos Hermanas: Uncanny Femininity, Grief & Childhood in Carillo's Animations," and Colleen Laird, creator of "Kūki."
