Women and Hollywood: France is setting up a sex equality charter for improving the numbers of women working within the film industry.
The five point charter was signed last week by Culture and Communications Minister Aurelie Filippetti, Womens' Rights Minister and government spokesman Najat Vallaud-Belkacem, Arte France chief Veronique Cayla and National Cinema Centre (CNC) president Frederique Bredin.
Le Deuxieme Regard, a lobbying group made up of female film producers and sales agents to promote women in the film industry, was integral to the charter.

I remember an article being posted back about a few weeks ago regarding the percentage of working women in the Hollywood film and television industry. This article reminds me of that and reminds me of my reaction to that article too. I think that it is truly great that these industries are taking a step forward to increase the number of working women in order to better reach gender equality.
