As the world reacts to the guilty verdicts against the former Hollywood mogul Harvey Weinstein we speak to directors, actors and producers about creating film in the age of #Metoo.

A young woman who works for a media mogul and the degrading climate he's created at the office. That鈥檚 the subject of the latest film by the acclaimed Australian writer and director Kitty Green. She talks to Tina Daheley about the challenges and the real life inspirations behind her new drama, The Assistant.

In the 92 year history of the Academy Awards there has only been one female winner of the best director Oscar; Kathryn Bigelow. This year as #OscarsSoMale trended on social media many people asked: Does Hollywood has a problem with female directors? The American director Rachel Feldman and the Bangladeshi film maker Rubaiyat Hossain, share their experiences of working in the film industry and tell us why their films tell the stories of strong women fighting for justice and equality.

How do you direct love scenes in the age of #MeToo? South African actor Nthati Moshesh and film director Sara Blecher tell Megha Mohan how they are working to create a comfortable and safe environment for all actors when filming intimate scenes.

Presented by Megha Mohan
