Telefilm Canada, UPEI Campus Life, and Robertson Library are presenting the award-winning movie Play Your Gender. The documentary, by Nova Scotia-based filmmaker Stephanie Clattenburg, is about the under-representation of women in the music industry. “Only 6 women have ever been nominated for a Producer of the Year Grammy and no woman has ever won. In PLAY YOUR GENDER, Juno award-winning producer Kinnie Starr is on a quest to find out why this disparity exists by speaking to industry stars and veterans about the realities of being a woman in the recording studio. Play Your Gender features interviews with Sara Quinn of Tegan & Sara, Melissa Auf der Maur of the Smashing Pumpkins, Patty Schemel of Hole, Chantal Kreviazuk, and many more of the music industry’s most talented women.” https://indiecanent.com/2015/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/PLAY-YOUR-GENDE… Special guest Wayne Carter, Executive Director, FIN: Atlantic International Film Festival will introduce the film and host a Q&A session after the movie.
