Question: Are the directors of films Fig Tree (Film) and Missing Women (Film) both from the same country?

Her directorial debut," Fig Tree", was an Ophir Award nominee for Best Picture in 2018. " Fig Tree" was based in part on her own childhood in Addis Ababa prior to emigrating to Israel. She is married to film director and producer Kobi Davidian. At the 2018 Toronto International Film Festival, she won the Eurimages Audentia Award for Best Female Director for" Fig Tree". Aäläm- Wärqe Davidian, commonly credited as Alamork Davidian in English, is an Ethiopian- Israeli film director. <SEP> In July 2018, it was one of five films nominated for the Ophir Award for Best Picture. The film was screened at the 2018 Toronto International Film Festival, where Davidian won the Eurimages Audentia Award for Best Female Director. Fig Tree is a 2018 internationally co-produced drama film directed by Alamork Davidian. <SEP> Missing Women is a 1951 American crime film directed by Philip Ford and written by John K. Butler. The film stars Penny Edwards, John Alvin, James Millican, John Gallaudet, James Brown and Robert Shayne. The film was released on February 23, 1951, by Republic Pictures. <SEP> Catherine Galliford( born 1966 -1967) is a Royal Canadian Mounted Police Corporal in British Columbia, Canada, known for making sexual harassment allegations against the RCMP, and being a high- profile police spokesperson for the Missing Women's Task Force. Galliford served as spokesperson for the Missing Women's Task Force( associated with the BC Missing Women Investigation), who came to prominence in 2011 for bringing forward allegations of extensive sexual harassment and misconduct within the RCMP. Chief among her allegations is the claim that officers in the Missing Women's Task Force neglected their duties and tolerated a three- year delay in apprehending serial killer Robert Pickton. When asked to testify before the Missing Women Commission of Inquiry, Galliford stated that she would not be testifying for the RCMP" but rather, on behalf of the victims." The individuals she named included Rob Nicholson, the Attorney General of Canada, Ian MacDonald, a doctor for the RCMP, and four officers. One month before hearings began in 2012, the inquiry deemed Galliford" too fragile" to testify, citing alcoholism and post traumatic stress disorder. After Galliford came forward, the RCMP denied her accusations and sought to dismiss her from the force. In 2013, a 2015 trial date was set for her case, but this was later delayed again to 2017. A class action lawsuit proceeded alongside hers and Janet Merlo has credited Galliford with inspiring four hundred female police officers to join it. In May 2016, Galliford dropped her complaint against Dr. Ian MacDonald and accepted a settlement from the other defendants. She was subsequently given a medical discharge from the RCMP. Catherine Galliford has a son with her former husband Darren Campbell, a sergeant major for the RCMP. This information was released when the son, Connor Campbell, was arrested in September 2015 along with two others for the murder of 19- year old Langley resident Nicholas Hannon. Connor Campbell was convicted in November 2016 and has called Galliford every day since the life sentence began. Galliford stated that the effects of PTSD and agoraphobia prevented her from attending the sentencing. She later said" I carry some guilt because after watching what I went through, I know that he developed a mistrust of the RCMP. But I think parents are parents, and I was a good parent. I know that." <SEP> The term" missing women" indicates a shortfall in the number of women relative to the expected number of women in a region or country. It is most often measured through male- to- female sex ratios, and is theorized to be caused by sex- selective abortions, female infanticide, and inadequate healthcare and nutrition for female children. It is argued that technologies that enable prenatal sex selection, which have been commercially available since the 1970s, are a large impetus for missing female children. The phenomenon was first noted by the Indian Nobel Prize- winning economist Amartya Sen in an essay in" The New York Review of Books" in 1990, and expanded upon in his subsequent academic work. Sen originally estimated that more than a hundred million women were" missing." Later researchers found differing numbers, with most recent estimates around ninety to 101 million women. These effects are concentrated in countries typically in Asia( with the largest numbers from India and China), the Middle East and northern Africa. Economists such as Nancy Qian and Seema Jayanchandran have found that a large part of the deficit in China and India is due to lower female wages and sex- selective abortion, or differential neglect. However, the disparity has also been found in Chinese and Indian immigrant communities in the United States, albeit to a far lesser degree than in Asia. An estimated 2000 Chinese and Indian female unborn children were aborted between 1991 and 2004, and a shortage can be traced back as far as 1980. Some countries in the former Soviet Union also saw declines in female births after the revolutions of 1989, particularly in the Caucasus region. Other economists, notably Emily Oster, have questioned Sen's explanation, and argued that the shortfall was due to a higher prevalence of the hepatitis B virus in Asia compared to Europe; however, her later research established that Hepatitis B can not account for more than an insignificant fraction of the missing women. Researchers have also argued that other diseases, HIV/ AIDS, natural causes, and female abduction are also responsible for missing women. However, son preference, as well as associated reasons to care for male well- being over female well- being, is still considered to the primary cause. In addition to the health and wellbeing of women, the missing women phenomenon has led to an excess of males in society and an imperfectly balanced marriage market. Because of the association of missing women with female neglect, countries with higher rates of missing women also tend to have higher rates of women in poor health, leading to higher rates of infants in poor health. Researchers argue that increasing women's education and women's employment opportunities can help decrease the number of missing women, but the effects of these policy solutions differ greatly between countries due to differing levels of ingrained sexism between cultures. Various international measures have been instituted to combat the problem of missing women. For example, to bring awareness to the problem of missing women, the OECD measures the number of missing women through the" Son preference" parameter in its SIGI index. <SEP> Philip Ford( October 16, 1900 – January 12, 1976) was an American film director and actor.
