Crafting Courage: Women, Film and the Power of Personal Narrative

This is a free event, but registration is required.

How do storytellers transform personal grief, trauma, and truth into powerful cinema–and what does it cost to tell these stories? What unique obstacles do women face in industries that often marginalize their voices? Join PEN America for a special screening of the 2024 Oscar-nominated Black Box Diaries, followed by a conversation with filmmaker and journalist Shiori Ito and Emmy Award–winning writer, director, and producer Ava DuVernay. Together, they’ll discuss the art and urgency of personal storytelling, the barriers that female creators continue to confront, and how courage, craft, and resilience shape narratives that demand to be seen.

The 2025 PEN World Voices Festival is a celebration of world literature and free expression. The 2025 edition will be the 20th World Voices Festival. Over four days, over 80 writers from over 35 countries will be featured in engaging talks, panels, readings, and performances in New York City and greater Los Angeles
