9 More Women in Comedy to Watch This Women’s History Month
This list was made with the intention of celebrating the craft. I love seeing more women of colour on this list than before and more newcomers on the scene as well!
EAST OF EDEN: The Red Fire of Kurdistan 1979–1982

Their ceremony marks a moment of possibility, as a people dare to imagine a different future. But beyond the celebration, a war is unfolding. Through archival footage, the film revisits the Kurdish struggle in Eastern Kurdistan between 1979 and 1982, tracing the resistance against the newly established Islamic Republic of Iran and the hopes, fractures, and sacrifices of a revolution within a revolution.
