Description
Leading film critic Hanna Flint offers an unflinchingly honest and humorous account of her journey towards self-acceptance through cinema. In Strong Female Character, she reflects on how cinema has been key to understanding herself and the world around her. Flint shares personal anecdotes from her experiences as a woman of mixed-race heritage in the film industry, including episodes of introspection and observations on the screen's representation of women and ethnic minorities. With humour and eloquence, she offers a critical eye on the creative industries' portrayal of multicultural society. Divided into sections that explore Flint's origin story, coming of age, adult life, workplace drama, and her own definition of strong female character, this book is full of film-infused lessons and warm, engaging storytelling.
