Lidewij Hartog - Director

We’re excited to welcome Lidewij Hartog, a Dutch film director who recently worked on a project for Nowness and directed a touching documentary about Ydwer, a sportsman who was paralyzed in a serious accident. With her background in anthropology, she brings a deeply human focus to her filmmaking, revealing fascinating behaviors and stories in all kinds of settings.

In this session, we’ll look back at how she got started, and explore the journey that shaped her into the director she is today. We’ll also talk about her experiences as a female director—the hurdles she’s faced, the advantages she’s found, and how she’s pushing forward to reach her goals.

We’d love for you to join the conversation, so be sure to check out some of Lidewij’s work beforehand. During the session, we’ll take your questions and ours, and if there’s time, we’ll wrap up with a short Q&A. Don’t miss it—this one’s bound to be full of valuable insights!
