Our company should not accept them anymore,” they mentioned, showing hope that their selection would motivate change.pic.twitter.com/HLkBV6VaWpu2014 Coralie Fargeat (@coraliefargeat) Nov 15, 2024The dispute started after Zydowicz, in an editorial for Cinematography World journal, proposed that boosting portrayal of female cinematographers and directors might compromise artistic high quality.
While he recognized the importance of dealing with sex differences, Zydowicz questioned whether “excellent creative accomplishments” could be given up to accommodate inclusivity.His remarks formed common backlash, along with leading cinematography guilds condemning the opinions and supervisor Steve McQueen terminating his planned appearance at the festival’s opening night assessment of his movie Blitz.In reaction, the Camerimage competition jury, led through Cate Blanchett, stressed their help for inclusivity while dedicating to relevant discussions on representation in the sector.
