The recent history of independent film and video testifies to the significant contributions of women in the field and highlights their role in defining an identity for film and video outside the dominant industry, predominantly a male territory. Far from associating production qualities with the differentgenders, which may lead to superficial - often misleading - conclusions such as describing women's work as sensitive, political, feminine, the question is better posited when it designates the artist's relation to power.
