Daniela (or Dani, for short) is as keen on film and television as she is on literature. Being the proud mother to two lovely cats, she loves pets wholeheartedly. When she's not watching a melancholic or existentialist movie, Dani is most likely enjoying a good book and the smell of its printed pages or listening to any Lana Del Rey record.
Over the years, several talented directors have played a role in film history and helped shape cinema with their memorable narratives, a few of them featuring unique, well-written female characters. Whether these films offer audiences thoughtful coming-of-age stories that meditate about the struggles of girlhood, or address delicate, woman-related topics such as motherhood and abortion, several captivating, women-centric stories have left an undeniably strong imprint on cinema.
9 'The Woman Who Left' Director: Lav Diaz In Lav Diaz's Filipino revenge film filmed entirely in black and white, a woman who spent 30 years in wrongful imprisonment decides to make a strong comeback after being released from prison in 1997 and realizing that her former rich lover, Rodrigo Trinidad was the one who framed her for a crime.
