The more that I see the sexism and misogyny that's coming at me from every direction, the less I think my films have anything to do with sexploitation.
Anna BillerPlenty of women say, "I'm just going to make myself into a sex object." But they often can't stay afloat doing that. They can't maintain their sanity. Some women can, but many cannot. They think they can, but self-objectification is really dangerous.
Anna BillerEvery time I get criticism from people, I learn from it and what to do the next time so there are fewer misconceptions. I'm continuing to be socialized as a woman, but also as a filmmaker.
