In celebration of International Women's Day, we would like to invite you to join the Kelowna Chamber of Commerce's Women's Leadership Network on March 4th for a very special evening of good company, great desserts, and one very interesting film - Miss Representation!
Like drawing back a curtain to let bright light stream in, Miss Representation (87 min; TV-14 DL) uncovers a glaring reality we live with every day but fail to see. Written and directed by Jennifer Siebel Newsom, the film exposes how mainstream media contribute to the under-representation of women in positions of power and influence in America. The film challenges the media's limited and often disparaging portrayals of women and girls, which make it difficult for women to achieve leadership positions and for the average woman to feel powerful herself.
Immediately following the screening, there will be a discussion led by one of the founding members of the Women's Leadership Network.
