Opinions of leading actresses such as Geena Davis, Meryl Streep, Cate Blanchett, Chloë Grace Moretz or Natalie Portman, who are also executive producers of the film, support this fact and lift the veil behind an unequal industry.

And two women (Kathryn Bigelow and Chloé Zhao) win Best Director Oscars. Statistics cannot be denied. In Hollywood, female roles are often secondary and behind the scenes, women are not held in positions of responsibility: CQFD? It is not without consequences in the formation of our imagination.
