The documentary produced by IAWRT (International Association of Women in Radio and Television) is about the challenges that women journalists the world over face in covering conflict regions.
"The 57-minute documentary 'Velvet Revolution' reinforces that there is no longer a red line when it comes to killing of women journalists. Women journalists, like their male counterparts, are also increasingly under attack by state and non-state players as they are doing their jobs," Nupur Basu, Executive Producer and project director of the documentary, said in a statement.
"As women, they are exposed to double attacks -- their personal safety is increasingly under threat and the attacks on them through social media are getting nastier and misogynistic," Basu added.
"Velvet Revolution" is a collaboration of six women directors.
