Using rare footage and exclusive interviews with filmmakers from all over the globe, "Reel Herstory" corrects the historic notion that women behind the scenes in motion pictures held peripheral careers compared with their male counterparts. Ally Acker takes us on a sweeping journey behind the scenes with the female film pioneers from 1896-2014 whose remarkable achievements in cinema transformed movies forever.
