The ‘Authors’ Days’, Giornate degli Autori, at the Venice Film Festival featured the sixth edition of ‘Miu Miu Women’s Tales Conversations’, days of all-women debates, this year revolving around the challenges entailed by a career in cinema and the media.
Miu Miu’s women in this edition were nine Golden Globe-winning stars – musicians, influencers, choreographers, producers, actors and writers: Celia Rowlson-Hall, a choreographer, film-maker and dancer, who directed The (End) of History Illusion, the fifteenth chapter of the Miu Miu Women’s Tales; Chloë Sevigny, an actor and director, who directed Carmen, the thirteenth of Miu Miu Women’s Tales, re-screened in Venice; Kate Bosworth, a producer and actor (The Horse Whisperer, Still Alice…); the actors Laura Harrier, Kiernan Shipka and Rowan Blanchard; and, on the closing afternoon, Tavi Gevinson, the still very young founder and editor-in-chief of the magazine ‘Rookie’ and the eclectic Hailey Gates, editor of the literary magazine Paris Review, who played a part in the series Twin Peaks by David Lynch and also modelled for a Miu Miu campaign.
The Miu Miu Women’s Tales Conversations took place on September 1 and 2 within the Spazio Fondazione Ente dello Spettacolo, at the Hotel Excelsior in Lido di Venezia, and were chaired by Penny Martin, editor-in-chief of the magazine The Gentlewoman.
