Guess What? Teona Mitevska & Céline Sciamma Are Starting a Sisterhood for Film!

• Who’s leading this cool new thing?
• What is “Sister Sister” all about?
• Where is it all kicking off?

You won’t believe what’s happening! The film world just got a major shake-up announced, and we are absolutely here for it.

Two incredible directors are joining forces. Imagine a bold, punk, and revolutionary vibe taking over the film scene. That’s the aesthetic we’re talking about!

North Macedonia’s very own Teona Mitevska, known for her powerful film “Mother,” is one of them. And then there’s French director Céline Sciamma, who gave us the unforgettable “Portrait of a Lady on Fire.” What a duo!

These two visionaries, plus other amazing filmmakers, are launching something really special. It’s called “Sister Sister.” We love that name already. Talk about a movement with a clear message.

This initiative is kicking off at the legendary Sarajevo Film Festival. Remember how much we love seeing Balkan filmmakers shine there? Sarajevo’s Film Fest: Making Balkan Filmmakers Shine Brighter! It’s the perfect stage for such a big move.

So, what’s “Sister Sister” all about? It wants to totally reshape how women work in movies and TV. Not just a little bit. We’re talking big, big changes.

It’s about making things inclusive for everyone. A new kind of future for film. And it sounds like it’s going to be fierce. We can almost see the vibrant, striking visuals of this movement already. A powerful new chapter.

Our Take

Seriously, we are so excited about “Sister Sister.” This isn’t just another committee meeting. This feels like a real moment for the industry.

It’s about time women’s roles in film and TV get the true spotlight. Not just in front of the camera, but behind it, too. From directing to producing, writing, and beyond. Every single role matters.

Teona Mitevska and Céline Sciamma are true leaders. Their vision for a “bold, punk, and revolutionary” industry? It’s exactly what we need. We’re ready for the revolution. And we’re grabbing our popcorn to watch it unfold.
