Alina Reyzelman:
gender doesn't matter As Much As Attitude
The lives of women are fraught with challenges. That is a story that is universal throughout the world, but the life-story of women as individuals will always be unique and poignant. Alina Reyzelman brings us the story of the struggles of three such women in Moscow, Russia, in her new documentary, "A Girl & The City." Although the women in the film are from diverse social and economic backgrounds, their stories bring to light many core issues that are a matter of course for women generally, such as: discrimination, financial disparity, neglect, under-employment and child-care, particularly for working and single mothers. As an important complement to that, female entrepreneurs and business women were also invited to participate and discuss these problems, to bring forward their opinions and experiences.
