\nWashington D. C. [USA], Dec 01 (ANI): American actor Dakota Johnson who is a member of James Gray\u2019s jury at Marrakech Film Festival, opened up about women\u2019s representation in the film industry.
Reflecting on the fact that this year\u2019s Marrakech jury had more women than men, Johnson said, \u201cThis jury happens to have more women and perhaps there might be an avenue for this to occur more often in the future, and I think that\u2019s awesome.\u201d
\u201cI am under the impression that there are many women involved in cinema behind the camera, in front of the camera, behind film festivals and in film festivals,\u201d she added.
The festival was attended by Lynne Ramsay, Laurent Cantet, Bollywood actor Ileana D\u2019Cruz, Lebanese filmmaker and visual artist Joana Hadjithomas, Moroccan director Tala Hadid, German actor Daniel Bru\u00a8hl and Mexican director Michel Franco, confirmed Variety.
Talking about the impact of women\u2019s movement in India, D\u2019Cruz said that she has witnessed \u201ca big shift\u201d in the film industry with a lot of women-centric movies gaining popularity in the country.
The 17th edition of Marrakech Film Festival kicked off on Friday (local time) with the screening of Julian Schnabel\u2019s \u2018At Eternity\u2019s Gate.\u2019<\/p>\n
