Glendyn Ivin is a very interesting looking man!
We have such fantastic female directors in this country. Jessica Hobbs is a very talented individual. Her work in leading the visual styles of The Slap, Spirited, Tangle, Love My Way, etc. is exceptional.
I really love that Redfern Now, and the people behind it, is getting the recognition it deserves.
We absolutely lead the way with women directors – that is just fantastic. Great work and properly recognised.
