Circles (film distributor)

Circles was a feminist film and video distribution organization established in 1979 in the United Kingdom by filmmakers Lis Rhodes, Jo Davis, Felicity Sparrow, and Annabel Nicolson, in response to the marginalization of women's work in experimental film. Operating as a membership organization that gave distributed filmmakers voting rights, it built a catalogue of more than 200 titles spanning ninety years of women's cinema before ceasing operations in 1991 due to funding constraints and merging with Cinema of Women to form Cinenova, which continues to circulate many of its titles.
