Hands down, 2024 was an amazing year for films directed by women. The year showcased many films featuring amazing stories and cinematography that captivated viewers worldwide. Women directors brought to the world some of 2024’s most memorable films (dare I say masterpieces), and each deserves a few hours of your time. Here are ten films that were released in 2024 that you need to add to your must-watch list.

Woman of the Hour (Netflix) Woman of the Hour served as Anna Kendrick’s directorial debut, and she also stars in the film. The film is based on the real-life story of “The Dating Game Killer,” Rodney Alcala, who appeared on a dating show in 1978 and won a date with a woman named Sheryl Bradshaw. It was later discovered he had murdered at least five women by the time he appeared on the show.
The film spotlights many serious topics, such as misogyny in the 70s and sexual violence. Kendrick also earned praise for showcasing the rampant sexism in the entertainment industry during this era and applauded her bravery for tackling a based-on-a-true-story script as her directorial debut. The Fire Inside (Amazon MGM Studios)
When you think of sports films, you usually think of films revolving around men, such as Coach Carter, Moneyball, and The Blindside. The Fire Inside stands out, as it revolved around female boxer Claressa “T-Rex” Shields and her journey competing at the 2012 Summer Olympics. The Fire Inside serves as Rachel Morrison’s feature directorial debut. On Rotten Tomatoes, the film was praised for being both inspiring and enraging, taking viewers on a rollercoaster of emotion and passion. The film flew under the radar for many, so definitely give it a chance for your next movie night!
Daughters (Netflix)
Daughters is a gut-wrenching and emotional film that was directed by Natalie Rae and Angela Patton. It’s a film that saw little fanfare online but definitely deserved it; I guarantee there will be no dry eye in the room after watching Daughters. This film revolves around four young girls and their incarcerated fathers. Daughters follows the girls as they prepare for a special Daddy Daughter Dance with their fathers, a chance given to them thanks to a fatherhood program in a jail in Washington, D.C. The film is available to watch on Netflix.
Blink Twice (Amazon MGM Studios)
Looking for a psychological thriller to watch tonight? I recommend checking out Blink Twice, which was directed and produced by Zoë Kravitz. This film serves as the actress’s directorial debut. The story revolves around a group of individuals who are invited to a billionaire mogul’s private island. Instead of getting a dream vacation, strange things start happening that cause the guests to question reality.
Blink Twice showcases the abuse of power and how those at the top feel they can use those at the bottom in any way they want. On Rotten Tomatoes, Kravitz was praised for her “bold and memorable debut,” marking her as a director to watch. Blink Twice is visually rich and will keep you at the edge of your seat.
Lisa Frankenstein (Focus Features)
Perhaps you’re in the mood for something less serious. If so, check out Lisa Frankenstein, a romantic comedy horror directed by Zelda Williams. Lisa Frankenstein serves as Williams’s feature-length directorial debut. The story revolves around Lisa, who falls in love with a man. Sounds normal, right? Well, this man is a Victorian-era corpse who was resurrected from his grave.
Lisa Frankenstein is reminiscent of horror comedies from the 80s and serves camp with every scene. It is cute, quirky, and not meant to be taken too seriously. I would say it leans more on comedy rather than horror, so no need to worry about nightmares after watching Lisa Frankenstein. The First Omen (20th Century Studios)
The First Omen serves as the sixth film in The Omen franchise and is a prequel to the 1976 film The Omen. The film was directed by Arkasha Stevenson and is her feature directorial debut. The First Omen tells the story of an American nun who travels to Rome to work at a Catholic orphanage. There, she discovers a horrifying conspiracy regarding the birth of the Antichrist.
The First Omen is a (horrifying) feast for the eyes. It features striking visuals that will keep your eyes peeled on the screen, but watch out for the jump scares at the first half. This movie is not for the faint hearted, featuring imagery that may be disturbing to some. It is a slow burn horror film made for horror movie veterans.
Babes (Neon)
Babes tells a humorous tale of motherhood and female adult friendship. This comedy film was directed by Pamela Adlon and serves as her feature directorial debut. Babes centers around best friends Eden (Ilana Glazer) and Dawn (Michelle Buteau). Eden has wanted a baby for the longest time and decides to pursue a pregnancy alone following a one-night stand. Her bond with Dawn, who is already a mother and is dealing with postpartum depression, is put to the test as they navigate this, er, milestone.
What I love about Babes is how it gives viewers a realistic view of female friendships. Sometimes your friends make decisions you don’t agree with, sometimes you fight about it, but oftentimes you resolve to get through it together. From start to finish, the film showcases the chemistry between Eden and Dawn, thanks to Adlon’s directing eye.
My Old Ass (Amazon MGM Studios)
A coming-of-age film and Aubrey Plaza? Sign me up. My Old Ass is a movie directed by Megan Park and follows 18-year-old Elliot (Maisy Stella) as she encounters her 39-year-old self (Plaza) during a mushroom tea trip. Older Elliot gives younger Elliot advice that could (or could not, who knows?) change her life.
Without spoiling too much of the film, the twist in this film made my jaw drop. My Old Ass features amazing comic timing and pacing that keeps viewers entertained. Additionally, the film perfectly balances comedy with nuggets of wisdom. Though a comedy film, Park uses the environment to pull certain emotions from watchers, making it a must-add to your watch list.
I Saw The TV Glow (A24)
I Saw The TV Glow is a supernatural horror fantasy film that stands out as an allegory of the 90s teens transgender experience. This film was directed by Jane Schoenbrun and centers around two troubled high school teenagers, Owen and Maddy, who bond over their favorite television show. However, that same show leads them to a world that causes them to question their realities.
In several interviews, Schoenbrun often described the film as being about the “egg crack,” which refers to the moment a trans person realizes they do not identify with their biological gender. I Saw The TV Glow is emotional and thought-provoking, and while there are some goosebump-inducing scenes, the film’s aesthetic will leave the viewer contemplating their life.
The Substance (Mubi)
Arguably the most popular film released in 2024 that was directed by a woman was The Substance. The film was directed by Coralie Fargeat, who also wrote, co-edited, and co-produced The Substance. The movie follows washed-up celebrity Elisabeth Sparkle (Demi Moore), who uses a black market drug to create a younger version of herself (Margaret Qualley) to earn fame once more. But will her choice have consequences?
The Substance was nominated for “Best Motion Picture – Musical or Comedy” at the 82nd Golden Globes. Fargeat was also nominated for “Best Director” for The Substance. The film is a body horror masterpiece that tells a tale of how women are treated once they age and the lengths women will go to remain young. It’s a story many women will have a personal connection with, and it is done so in a way that is extremely clever.

Rhodiola
Rhodiola is an adaptogenic herb known for its ability to help the body adapt to stress while enhancing energy levels and endurance. It contains powerful compounds like rosavin and salidroside, which have been linked to improved mental performance and reduced fatigue. By promoting healthy mitochondrial activity, Rhodiola can aid in increasing energy during workouts, making it easier to maintain a regular exercise routine—a critical component of any successful weight loss strategy. Additionally, Rhodiola helps regulate the body’s response to stress, which can prevent stress-related eating and weight gain. This multifaceted action makes Rhodiola a vital ingredient in Mitolyn Purple Peel Exploit, supporting not just weight loss but also overall well-being.
Haematococcus
Haematococcus pluvialis is a type of freshwater microalgae recognized as one of the richest sources of astaxanthin, a potent antioxidant. Astaxanthin is celebrated for its ability to protect cells from oxidative stress and inflammation, promoting overall health while aiding in weight management. The presence of this powerful antioxidant in Mitolyn Purple Peel Exploit supports mitochondrial health by improving its efficiency and promoting fat burning. This ingredient also offers protective benefits to the skin and eyes, making it highly valuable for those looking to enhance their overall health and appearance while losing weight. As a result, Haematococcus contributes significantly to the comprehensive benefits of the supplement.
Amla
Amla, or Indian gooseberry, is a nutrient-dense fruit celebrated in traditional Ayurvedic medicine for its health-promoting properties. Rich in vitamin C and antioxidants, Amla supports a healthy immune system and promotes digestion, making it an essential ingredient in Mitolyn Purple Peel Exploit. Studies suggest that amla can enhance mitochondrial function and promote fat metabolism, helping to support weight loss efforts. Moreover, its ability to improve digestion contributes to better nutrient absorption, which is crucial when following a diet. By incorporating amla into the formula, Mitolyn Purple Peel Exploit not only focuses on weight management but also bolsters overall health and vitality.
Theobroma Cacao
Theobroma cacao, commonly known as cacao, is not only a primary ingredient in chocolate but also a powerhouse of health benefits. This superfood is rich in flavonoids, which are known to improve blood flow and support cardiovascular health. In the context of weight loss, cacao supports mitochondrial activity by enhancing energy levels and improving metabolic efficiency. Additionally, theobromine, a compound found in cacao, acts as a natural stimulant, boosting mood and energy. By including Theobroma cacao in Mitolyn Purple Peel Exploit, the product aims to provide a pleasurable and energizing experience while promoting effective weight loss.
Schisandra
Schisandra is a berry known for its adaptogenic properties, supporting the body’s ability to cope with stress and fatigue.

Three sisters from Kerry have won this year’s BT Young Scientist and Technology Exhibition.
Ciara aged 17, Saoirse who’s 15, and 12 year-old Laoise Murphy from Presentation Secondary School Tralee won the top prize.

AN Astra Park, Winklespruit resident is gearing up to publish her first children’s book, which she wrote and illustrated. Graphic designer, Jennifer Carroll (29), drew a wealth of inspiration from her beloved grandmother and her little son’s prized giraffe plushy and entitled her book ‘Sleepover and Grandma: Gabriel the Giraffe’.
Carroll grew up in Mpumalanga and lived with her grandparents since she was two-years-old. She moved to Astra Park when she was 10. She set out to help children with ADHD who have trouble falling asleep.
Drawing on her own experiences – both she and her six-year-old son have it – through her book she imparts the same calming method used by her grandmother which helped her doze off during her childhood.
Little Gabriel Perestrelo (6) and his author mum.
“My grandmother has been my everything. My grandparents live right across the road from me and it’s wonderful having them so close by.”
While she boasts some writing experience from college, where she wrote and illustrated for a project, she also illustrated two poetry books which created a spark in her.
“It was really awesome. A year ago, I started writing and I didn’t tell anyone – my hubby didn’t even know. Once I was done, it was a huge surprise for everyone. It was really emotional for my gran – she was amazed and she cried. The book was inspired a lot by my son, who is in the book, as well as his little giraffe plushy which is his pride and joy.”
The whimsical cover to the book, set to launch on March 1 at The Coffee Theatre on Rockview Road.
Carroll explained that while she had initially studied to be a teacher, she had to go for back surgery and could no longer afford her studies.
“I’ve been through therapy a lot due to my childhood trauma and found a love for psychology during my studies to be a teacher. After the surgery, I couldn’t delve deeper. I lost my job due to it as well and was so mad at my circumstances. I wanted to be able to help children along those lines and I found that I could do so through my books.”
When asked about her hobbies, Carroll jokingly said, “Gaming. I don’t have any other hobbies, I have a six-year-old.”
She went into graphic design as she could only work while lying down. Back when she lived in Cape Town, she had her own business and designed posters. When Canva, an online design suite, came out, she was doing a lot of designing and was encouraged by the people around her to pursue it further. She then delved further and went into a short study into graphic design.
“I’ve been at it for two to three years now. Once I finished my book, I called around for publishers and had put out a Facebook post and The Infinity Tree Publishing House got in touch with me. They have truly brought my dream to life. Jennifer Strachan’s unwavering support and the incredible opportunities she provides for authors are nothing short of extraordinary. I am deeply grateful and honoured to be a part of The Infinity Tree family. They prepared me with questions as to my next book and it really hit me that this is my passion,” said Carroll.
The talented author and illustrator will be celebrating her book launch with a party on March 1 at The Coffee Theater on Rockview Road, Doonside, from 10:00 to 12:00. For more information, email [email protected] or contact 083 304 5970.
