War Paint - Women At War

Margy Kinmonth’s feature documentary shines a light on the trailblazing women war artists on front lines round the world. 

The third film in Kinmonth’s trilogy about depictions of war, following the acclaimed Eric Ravilious – Drawn To War and War Art with Eddie Redmayne, War Paint explores the female perspective on conflict. When it's life or death, what do women see that men don’t? Traditionally a male domain, war art by women has been largely unrecognised. Until now… With an entirely female cast of contributors including Dame Rachel Whiteread, Zhanna Kadyrova, Maggi Hambling, Assil Diab, Dame Laura Knight, Cornelia Parker, Maya Lin, Shirin Neshat and Lee Miller, War Paint is a unique undertaking about the need to tell vital truths in turbulent times.

We're pleased to announce that the screening on Sat 29 Mar will feature a 20 min pre-recorded Q&A following the film.
