}}Sarah Gavron (born 20 April 1970) is a British film director. She has directed four short films, and three feature films.[1] Her first film was This Little Life (2003), later followed by Brick Lane (2007) and Village at the End of the World (2012). Her latest film, Suffragette (2015) is based in the London of 1912 and tells the story of the Suffragette movement based on realistic historical events.[2]

Sarah Gavron is also both a wife and a mother, and "got into filmmaking to make a difference."[1][3] She has dedicated her career to accurately telling the stories of women.[1][3] In addition, the scarcity of women filmmakers in the UK is what inspires Gavron with her own filmmaking, and her responsibility as a female director.[1][3]

Biography

Gavron was educated at Camden School for Girls.[4] She graduated from the University of York with a BA in English in 1992[5] and an MA in film studies from Edinburgh College of Art when it was associated with Heriot-Watt University.[6] While at Edinburgh College of Art, Sarah Gavron was granted a position in a directing class that was taught by Stephen Frears.[1] Frears is one of her greatest influences in filmmaking and directing, as well as Mike Leigh and Terrence Davies.[1] She then worked for the BBC for three years. She went on to study feature film directing at the National Film and Television School in London. The actor Rafi Gavron is the son of her half-brother, Simon Gavron.

Gavron is married to cinematographer David Katznelson, and together, they have two children.[7]

Career

Gavron began her film career making documentaries, a field that seemed "more accessible at that point," but kept returning to narrative filmmaking because of her desire to tell stories.[8]

Her first film, This Little Life (2003), is classified as a television drama with the plot surrounding a couple and their premature born child;[1] Brick Lane (2007) is her second most recognized feature film, that is an adaptation of Monica Ali's novel Brick Lane, [9] which encapsulates the life of an Indian, female immigrant living in London, U.K;[1] Village at the End of the World (2012) which is a documentary that Sarah Gavron directed in a peninsula in Greenland;[1] and her latest film Suffragette (2015) that is based in London of 1912 which tells the story of the Suffragette movement, specifically, the early twentieth century campaign of women's suffrage that centers the lives of three women that take on fictitious names in the film, however represent non-fictional historical figures.[2]

In Brick Lane (2007) Gavron centers the female protagonist in "one of the most ethically diverse neighborhoods in the United Kingdom." [9]

Sarah Gavron points out that Suffragette (2015) is "this first major feature film to focus on the fight for women's suffrage, and it is a personal film and the highest-profile film for Gavron." [10] The film conveys important themes regarding legal and social positions of women, wives and mothers in 1912.[2] Gavron believes that the women's suffrage movement must be regarded as a "multi stranded, and complex story that is still unfolding." [2] Gavron intended Suffragette to be telling of important moments in the past, but also relevant in present day. Gavron believes that her specific focus on ordinary, every day women would make her film, and ultimately her message as a feminist, relevant across time.[10]

The film Suffragette (2015) was acquired by Focus Features (originally Relativity) in March 2015.[11] The film premiered at the 2015 Telluride Film Festival.
