Thank you Diablo Magazine &  Pete Crooks for including me in  Diablo Magazine’s 2023 Power Players. It is an absolute honor.   By Peter Crooks   DIABLO MAGAZINE’S 2023 POWER PLAYERS.   DOCUMENTARY NOW MEET THREE EAST BAY DIRECTORS WHO ARE TELLING FASCINATING TRUE STORIES.  We celebrate eleven female innovators who are making a difference.  Longtime Orinda resident Julie Rubio has been using her filmmaking skills for years, starting with an instructional yoga video she shot on Oahu’s North Shore nearly two decades ago. At the time, Rubio was teaching yoga at Lafayette’s Oakwood Athletic Club, a job she left to pursue filmmaking full-time.  Rubio has built a résumé of independent films, writing and directing the noir thriller Six Sex Scenes and a Murder and the teen drama Too Perfect, as well as several short films shot in the East Bay. She had a major breakthrough in 2014, producing the hit East Side Sushi, a drama about a Mexican American immigrant who finds success as a sushi chef in an Oakland restaurant.  Rubio has spent the past several years directing a documentary about the artist Tamara de Lempicka, a painter who died in 1980 at the age of 82.  “De Lempicka’s popularity soars today, 40 years after her death,” says Rubio. “In 2020, her work sold at auction for over $21 million. ... Her most famous collector is Madonna. I have Madonna in the film, as well as Barbra Streisand, Jack Nicholson, and Anjelica Huston, as they [are] all collectors.”  Rubio and her team are in talks with major streamers and museums about the release of the film. Meanwhile, Rubio was recently named president of Women in Film San Francisco Bay Area, a position that will run through 2026.  https://www.diablomag.com/people-style/people/diablo-magazine-s-2023-power-players/article_2dea0816-e2f2-11ed-a7b0-4344cb305238.html #wifsfba #film #director
