When Viola Davis gave her acceptance speech after winning Best Supporting Actress at the Oscars last night for her role in Fences, I needed to lie down.

Where less progress has been made is in the area of female filmmakers.

While women are half the global population, they make up only 17% of directors, writers, producers, executive producers, editors, and cinematographers working on the highest grossing films of 2016, and only 7% of all directors on the 250 highest-grossing domestic releases last year.
