Weber challenged herself and the audience to create films that would address social issues and other controversial topics that would later be heavily criticized by her processors. For instance, her piece Where Are My Children? (1916) addresses what was, at the time and still present day, the issue of birth control and abortion.She also inscribes the idea of capital punishment in The People vs. John Doe (1916) Many films created by women are not heavily focused on the woman and femininity as expected by most viewers, but created to assert messages that would be impactful to critical audiences. For instance, Catherine Hardwicke directed the one of the most successful sci-fi teen drama film that would first be a successful novel by Stephanie Meyer, Twilight, a movie about an immortal vampire and a mortal girl that has absolutely no correlation to feminism, but spoken and filmed in the perspective of the female lead role, Bella, played by American actress Kristen Stewart.
