Agence France-Presse “Just one in five films made in Europe is directed by a woman” http://www.theguardian.com/film/2016/apr/28/one-in-five-films-europe-directed-woman
European Women’s Audiovisual Network (EWAN) *1によるヨーロッパ映画界のジェンダー･バランスの調査報告（対象となった国は、英国、仏蘭西、瑞典、伊太利、オーストリア、クロアティア）。
ヨーロッパの映画の５本に１本は女性の監督によって撮られている。
映画学校の卒業生の44％は女性が占めているが、業界に入るのはその半分に満たない。
映画に投資される資金の84％は男性が監督する映画に向けられている。
資金が集まりにくいにも拘らず、女性が監督する映画は映画祭で賞を取る可能性が高い。

Although France had a “significantly higher number of [female] directors in comparison with others countries” – thanks to its state-supported funding system – female directors still laboured with lower budgets on average than their male counterparts.Two-thirds of female directors in the UK who responded to the study thought private funders reacted negatively to projects directed by women.
“Women are seen as ‘high risk’, particularly for higher budget productions, and there is felt to be a bias towards certain narratives such as action drama, and male-led story lines,” the report added.

In its recommendations it calls for five-year targets to ensure “an equal share of funding for female directors”.
EWAN said public service broadcasters should have targets to achieve “a minimum 40% share of female directors of feature-length dramas and documentaries of over 60 minutes.”
It also said all commissioning bodies should have gender-equal boards.
