    Call Me Ma’am

    Adrienne Camille / Veteran Filmmaker, Navy, Women / USA / 2016 / Documentary / 4 mins
    Based on a true story, “Call Me Ma’am” is a visual expression of what it was like to be a new Navy officer from a woman’s point of view. When she first shows up, she’s lost and not welcomed by her subordinates or superiors. Through hard work and dedication, she gains the respect of her crew but must still go to head to head with the tyrant that runs the department. She succeeds at taking over the department and wins his respect as well.
