A lot of people talk about turning their pain into art, but today's guest actually walks that talk.
From her semi-autobiographical feature films Virgin, Split, and Hounddog (which she wrote and directed) to her directorial artistry on shows like Star Trek Picard, FBI International, and The Gilded Age, Deborah Kampmeier has poured her love, her passion, and her raw feminine truth into every frame.
And in this episode of the Be Marvelus Podcast, Deborah shares the controversies she has faced as a female filmmaker (before, during, and after the Me Too Movement) and why she's raising a billion-dollar film fund to finance female directors.
Sit back, relax, and get ready to be inspired!
