WAR PAINT: WOMEN AT WAR (12A)

Dir: Margy Kinmouth | UK | 2025 | 90 mins 

Documentary

Margy Kinmonth’s latest feature doc shines a light on trailblazing women war artists on front lines round the world. 

The third film in Kinmonth’s trilogy about depictions of war, following the acclaimed Eric Ravilious – Drawn To War and War Art with Eddie Redmayne, War Paint: Women at War explores the female perspective on conflict. When it's life or death, what do women see that men don’t? Traditionally a male domain, war art by women has been largely unrecognised. Until now… With an entirely female cast of contributors including Dame Rachel Whiteread, Zhanna Kadyrova, Maggi Hambling, Assil Diab, Dame Laura Knight, Cornelia Parker, Maya Lin, Shirin Neshat and Lee Miller, War Paint: Women at War is a unique undertaking about the need to tell vital truths in turbulent times.
