Another Gaze is a feminist film journal, founded in January 2016. All four of our print issues are now available to purchase here and at the stockists below. You can sign up to our mailing list here.

If you read us often, please consider a donation to keep us going. We are a non-for-profit with all funds going back into the journal. Our editors all work other jobs and aren’t paid by Another Gaze. Donations ensure we can keep printing issues, paying writers, editing our video portraits of women filmmakers and reordering past issues. Donations also mean we’re able to commission more of the great pitches we sometimes have to turn down.

We are currently raising funds for the printing costs of our fifth issue; a reprint of our second issue; the translation and interpreting costs associated with of our series of interviews with Japanese filmmakers. Donate here
