Biography
Kay Armatage (born 1943) is a Canadian filmmaker, former programmer at the Toronto International Film Festival and Professor emerita at the University of Toronto's Cinema Studies Institute and Women & Gender Studies Institute. Though she attained a B.A. in English Literature from Queen's University, her name is generally linked with the University of Toronto.
Hailing from Saskatchewan, Armatage now lives in Toronto, Ontario. During her time as an international programmer at TIFF, Armatage worked hard to introduce audiences to female filmmakers and showed an affinity for risk-taking films. This tendency plays out in her films; Armatage makes feminist pieces that realist and experimental in form, usually documentaries. As a feminist filmmaker, Armatage makes observational films that speak to women's issues and challenges conventional filmmaking.
