“Tell It Like a Woman” is headed stateside. Deadline reports that Samuel Goldwyn Films has landed U.S. distribution rights to the star-studded feature that consists of seven intertwining segments, each helmed by and starring women. The project’s on-screen and off-screen talent include Taraji P. Henson, Catherine Hardwicke, and Eva Longoria.

Spanning a wide range of genres and directed by women from different parts of the world, “Tell It Like a Woman” consists of “‘Unspoken,’ directed by Maria Sole Tognazzi and starring Margherita Buy; ‘Lagonegro,’ directed by Lucia Puenzo and starring Eva Longoria; ‘Elbows Deep,’ directed by Catherine Hardwicke and starring Cara Delevingne, Marcia Gay Harden, and Jasmine Luv; ‘Sharing A Ride,’ directed by Leena Yadav and starring Jacqueline Fernandez and Anjali Lama; ‘A Week In My Life,’ directed by Mipo O and starring Anne Watanabe; and ‘Pepcy & Kim,’ directed by Taraji P. Henson and starring Jennifer Hudson and Pauletta Washington.”

Thirteen-time Academy Award nominee Diane Warren, who is getting an honorary Oscar this year, wrote an original song for the film, “Applause,” which is performed by Sofia Carson.

“Tell It Like a Woman” recently made its world premiere at the Taormina Film Festival.

One of the film’s producers, Chiara Tilesi, commented, “In this historical moment where some fundamental rights have been taken from women, it is even more important that we put women at the center of the conversation. ‘Tell It Like a Woman’ portrays different women around the world with one mission, to steadily empower them through their stories.”
