But only with more diversity of women.
An article made me aware that this movie only features western European descendent or white women.
While it is an omage to people being overlooked it overlooks others.
A woman to many people is still mainly a white woman.
But even in electronic music there were many women of none European descendent who contributed.
I am myself fascinated with the amount of women in electronic music and this movie came out when I started to understand that I as a woman feel home in modular synthesis and electronic music.
Even more fascinated was I when seeing that there were woman like me before literally pioneering the field I feel home in.
Even more women who were and think or thought like me. Like role models I was always craving as I grew up.
I don't look at people based on their appearance. To me every woman is a woman and I was flattered seeing other women doing wonderful things. But know I am left wondering why there are only white women in the movie.
I don't think anyone had any racial intention here. It is just the white women were more easily to be rediscovered. But there are so many more out there. Women of all cultures.
It is only reflecting how much more powerful we women are if we keep digging deeper.
The reasons women of color are overlooked are the same why women in general were oberlooked. Stereotypes.
Now they try to break with stereotypes of white women thinking they were representing all women. But no.
This movie is an attempt to break with stereotyoes but it is not going far enough and is deepening stereotypes.
To be honest, I was a bit bored by the movie. I felt there was so much more to all those stories of great women and at some point I felt the makers ran out of money or so.
I think if more money would gave been 8nvested they could have and wpuld have be allowed to dig deeper.
The trailer was great, but the movie lacked the same power.
If this had been a documentry about men much more money would have been invested toshow their stories in the exciting way it was.
I recommend the movie, because for it to be of so much importance. But I believe this is just the beginning of something bigger giving all the talented women of electronic music the light they deserve to be represented in no matter what origine they were or are.
7 stars for I love how the existence of that movie moticate me becoming a woman of electronic music.
