Guerrilla Girls

Why Has 87% of Icelandic Film Centre Funding Gone to Men?
2015

A graphic poster with a pink background and bold black text posing a "National Film Quiz" question about why 87% of Icelandic Film Centre funding has gone to men, with three answer options, the last of which is circled in red and reads "c. It's discrimination." Below the circled answer, a statement adds that the film industry is way behind the rest of the country. A footnote states that from 2000-2012 only 13% of films funded by Icelandic Film Centre were made by women, and the message is attributed to the Guerrilla Girls. The top left corner features the Icelandic flag emblem.
