Join hosts Tim and Shannon as they discuss the taboos behind menstruation. They will delve into how periods are viewed in religion, why women keep it a secret, the cost and access to the supplies, as well as intimacy during that time of the month. We will be speaking to our Awaken Star, Diana Fabianova, a Documentary Filmmaker, along with our Goodwill Partner, Florence Akara, the Director of Femme International.
The writer-director of the award-winning feature, The Moon Inside You (2009), Diana Fabiánová, is the documentary filmmaker of the Young Slovak Wave. Fabiánová has pioneered a personal, engaging documentary style, using animation, vintage film clips and autobiographical elements as well as classic interviews, achieving a unique tone described by Variety as "absolutely, riotously right."
The Moon Inside You premiered at the 62nd Locarno International Film Festival as a part of Semaine de la Critique (the first Slovak entry ever) in August 2009 and has since been shown in over 150 festivals all over the World, being most notably chosen by the American Film Institute to represent the European New Wave in Washington DC, as well as in the European Parliament in Brussels, being screened in Montréal, Chicago, London, Paris, Melbourne, Mumbai, Tunis, etc. Co-produced by ARTE and STV, the film was pre-bought by number of European television networks as well as by the US educational program for colleges and Universities MED. It had its theatrical release in May 2010 in Spain and Canada and in 2011 in Australia.
Humorous-educational version for children called Monthlies, was created by crowdfunding, with the financial support of people from 33 countries. At that time, it was the most successful Slovak and Czech film project on domestic and international crowdfunding platforms.
They global premiere of the movie was held in one day in more than 200 locations, in 22 countries around the world. The documentary has been translated into 10 world languages and has become an educational tool in the USA, Argentine, rural areas of China, Taiwan, Nepal, Morocco, India, ...
A native of Bratislava, Diana Fabiánová graduated in Mass Media and Journalism at the University of Slovakia in 2003, and in 2005 in Documentary Direction at Barcelona University's ESCAC (Graduate School of Cinema and Audiovisual in Catalonia), where she was tutored by Daniel Jariod and George Karpathy. By the end of the same year she subsequently won a scholarship to pursue the intensive Directing Documentaries workshop taught by Michael Rabiger at the Mallorca Film Academy.
After living in Spain and France and traveling the world, Diana is currently settled back in her native Slovakia.
