Quote:
"I don't know what I think of quotas yet, but I believe it's important for Telefilm—and hopefully eventually (Quebec funding agency) SODEC—to give special attention to scripts by women and especially stories that put women in the foreground. There's a clear lack of diversity in cinema at the moment, and a lack of female role models. There are very few of us. It's important for future generations to have role models so that one day we won't need these kinds of initiatives and it will become obvious that a woman can be behind the camera."
