More than a decade after MISS REPRESENTATION first examined how media and culture shape women’s access to power, MISS REPRESENTATION: RISE UP returns to the question in an era transformed by AI, algorithms, and deepfake technologies. The film explores the new forms of gender-based harassment and manipulation, aimed at undermining and silencing women and girls.

Directed by Jennifer Siebel Newsom, an award-winning filmmaker, advocate, and thought leader focused on gender equality and child well-being. She is the First Partner of California, founder of The Representation Project, and co-founder of the California Partners Project, and a mother of four.
