According to Ariel Wengroff, the executive producer of the show, the goal is to utilize the VICE platform to highlight issues that the audience might not otherwise be aware of. In the case of this series, the theme is gender-based violence and injustice around the world.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_40853\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-40853\" style=\"width: 2048px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-40853\" src=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/4-Ariel-Wengroff.jpg\" alt=\"Executive producer Ariel Wengroff Chelsea Film Festival\" width=\"2048\" height=\"1366\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/4-Ariel-Wengroff.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/4-Ariel-Wengroff-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.adorama.com\/alc\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/11\/4-Ariel-Wengroff-1024x683.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2048px) 100vw, 2048px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-40853\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><em>Executive producer Ariel Wengroff addresses the audience at CFF Q&amp;A after the screening. Photo by Natalia Stone<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>\u201cIf you bear witness to these stories then you have the ability to create change,\u201d says Wengroff. \u201cWe\u2019re giving an extraordinary amount of young people the opportunity to learn about these issues, go online learn more about the organizations we\u2019re partnering with, and help donate and create change in these local places.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>In addition to the documentary on rape in the Congo, the <em>Vice Media: Woman with Gloria Steinem<\/em>, also showcased two of its other films on the topic including <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=rI2uecN_T_w\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em>Mothers Behind Bars<\/em><\/a>, a documentary about women in the U.S. that are locked up and separated from their children and the psychological effect it has on the families. The third documentary, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.viceland.com\/en_us\/video\/pakistan-on-the-frontlines\/57643175f02f201f553c865d\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><em>On the Frontlines<\/em><\/a>, is a film about women in Pakistan and the balance between cultural traditions, female education and changing times of how that society looks at women.<\/p>\n<h2>The Power of Storytelling<\/h2>\n<p>The power of storytelling is not just about highlighting an issue, but about the inspiration it provides to those who are willing to make a difference. Watching an impactful story can be the catalyst to propel one towards change that needs to be made. As Ariel Wengroff put it, \u201cgo with your gut, don\u2019t believe in the word no, fight for what you believe in and know that its going to take a long time in some cases to see change and it\u2019s OK. Your effort is really worth it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Filmmakers, photographers, and writers are all storytellers with the power to make change, but when one focuses on crimes like these that need broader awareness to try and stop the practice, the message and impact are even greater. Lives can be saved and made better, especially if it leads to a greater effort on the part of the government to stop these acts of violence.<\/p>\n<p>So when you are searching for a topic for your first (or second or third) film, keep in mind that while films can entertain and enlighten, they can also help alter the wrongs of society. A documentary series like <em>Woman<\/em> has that power as it spreads the word about the atrocities and gets more activists involved in the cause.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Watch this video on YouTube In its quest to make the world a better place through movies, this year the Chelsea Film Festival (CFF) tackled women&#8217;s issues with one of the strongest voices for women&#8217;s rights\u2014Gloria Steinem, who has been an outspoken champion for the cause since the 1960s.
