Women and Algorithms

Directed by Gabrielle Stemmer

In five eight-minute episodes, “Femmes sous algorithmes” deciphers the most popular videos from the women's YouTube universe (fed and consumed mainly by women). This webseries immerses viewers in current trends that present a typically feminine model of success, using all the tools of advertising to model the ideal woman. For if algorithms force us to confront the depths of our unconscious, they also reveal the unconscious of the world in which we live. If there's one thing we all share, it's the Algorithm. It touches us, threatens us, watches over us - it binds us.
