“I do not intentionally take up feminist projects. I am a feminist, and, as a woman, I need to see women represented through a female gaze. I draw my inspiration in a lack of visibility of empowered women. In every field, we women have been shown male models although we comprise 50% of the world population. As a child, I had a hard time identifying with male characters. As a student, I have read few female writers. As a director, I needed to show women in situations men have been assigning to men. I also wanted to allow men to embody what is usually attributed to women — vulnerability, sensitivity, gentleness — emotions men are supposed to hide according to patriarchal standards. Moving to New York City inspired me a lot. I got to challenge my conception of gender in a city where you can choose your gender identity. Hence, at the core of I’m Not an Easy Man lies the following question: what is feminine?” — Eléonore Pourriat
