Women participation as writers, producers, cinematographers and
protagonists is higher in films with women directors. On the other hand, the
presence of men is greater working as these same functions in films directed
by men. Men are also majority as cinematographers and protagonists in films
directed by women. Moreover, the presence of men in all selected key
functions in films directed by women is higher than the participation of women
in all functions in films directed by men. Besides, there are more films in which
the functions are performed by both men and women in films directed by
women, than in films directed by men.
