I chose a lot of recent movies on purpose, because I know that the majority of my colleagues will name the usual classics. Classics I probably love too, but I thought about my list as a way to enlight various, complex, deep and accurate female trajectories. To me, cinema has of course to do with directing, framing, a science of music, cutting and lightening, things all the movies and directors I've named master. But cinema also has to do with original stories, deep feelings and striking representations - considering all those fields, these 10 movies marked my soul like no other did.
