Episode 42: WiHM Director Spotlight: Julia Ducournau: RAW (2016) & Titane (2021)

It’s Women in Horror Month! So, for this episode we decided to put the spotlight on the French film director Julia Ducournau. We are discussing her debut feature film Raw (2016) and her most recent release Titane (2021), which made her the second female director to ever win a Palme d’Or award. We will also be briefly discussing her short film from 2011, Junior. The themes that we will be dissecting will be body horror from the female gaze, the monstrous feminine, as well as sexuality and gender as represented in Julia’s films. Enjoy and welcome to our dark side… Intro/Outro Music: Robeast by Dance with the Dead Artwork by: Jess Hrycyk https://www.etsy.com/ca/shop/JessHrycyk Editing work by: Jessica
