If there's specific resistance to women making movies I just choose to ignore that as an obstacle for two reasons: I can't change my gender and I refuse to stop making movies.
Resistance is thought transformed into feeling. Change the thought that creates the resistance and there is no more resistance.
Solidarity is an attitude of resistance I suppose or it should be.
Art begins with resistance - at the point where resistance is overcome. No human masterpiece has ever been created without great labor.
