Gender inequality in the film industry and the barriers women encounter are referred to as the "celluloid ceiling." To fully understand the structural and social causes of this phenomenon, comprehensive data collection and analysis are required. The current research aims to explore women's representation in student projects to examine how women studying in film schools encounter the celluloid ceiling before graduating and entering the workforce. For this purpose, 266 short films submitted over three years to a student film competition in Turkiye were investigated. The gender distribution in leadership positions, such as producing, directing, and screenwriting, as well as technical and acting roles, were examined. The study also looked at how having a woman in a leadership position in a film affected recruiting more women for positions behind the camera. The findings revealed that women are underrepresented behind the camera compared to men, and the proportion of women working behind the camera was higher when a female director or producer was present. A female director's or screenwriter's presence in a film also significantly affected passing the Bechdel-Wallace Test, an indicator of on-screen representation.
