2009 has been pretty special and it's not over yet: hot off the fine presses of Wayne State University Press comes my third book of the year, There She Goes: Feminist Filmmaking and Beyond. In the spirit of feminist art, this book is a collective effort: specifically, an editorial collaboration with with my friend and colleague Corinn Columpar from the University of Toronto Cinema Studies department, and with contributions from an amazing range of writers, including filmmaker Michelle Citron on digital filmmaking and Kay Armatage on programming women's cinema, and interviews with filmmakers Kim Longinotto and Samira Makhmalbaf -- seen in our cover image, directing At Five in the Afternoon in Afghanistan.

With essays on Miranda July, Sally Potter, Janie Geiser, Maya Deren, Agnès Varda, Tracey Moffatt, Cindy Sherman, Sadie Benning and Jane Campion it's a wide-ranging collection that will introduce you to new moving-image artists -- and new ways of thinking about those you love!
