SUMMARY:Transcendent Storytelling
DESCRIPTION:Film Fatales and Outfest Fusion hosted a live panel discussion about Authentic Storytelling. We heard from new voices in trans cinema including Fatales Forward fellows M.G. Evangelista (Burning Well) and Seyi Adebanjo (Ọya: Something Happened On The Way To West Africa!) as they discuss their filmmaking process and the power of storytelling as a tool for meaningful cultural change. Despite the increased visibility of trans characters on screen\, opportunities for gender-expansive directors behind the camera are virtually non-existent. By sidelining gender nonconforming voices\, Hollywood is actively contributing to the misrepresentation that leads directly to real-world violence. We need more gender-nonconforming storytellers behind the camera to ensure the authenticity of the stories being told. Moderated by Nava Mau. \nFatales Forward: Trans Stories is a trailblazing fellowship from Film Fatales created to uplift trans and gender diverse filmmakers by fostering an enduring collaborative community of creators. This event is free and open to the public.

SUMMARY:Authentic Authorship
DESCRIPTION:Film Fatales member Roxy Shih moderated this discussion on authentic authorship and ethical storytelling with Geeta Gandbhir (Director of Why We Hate and Call Center Blues)\, and Lisa Valencia-Svensson (VP of Finance\, Multitude Films and Co-Producer of Pray Away)\, Smriti Mundhra (Creator of Indian Matchmaking and Director of St Louis Superman) and Tamara Dawit (Director of Finding Sally and co-founder of Racial Equity Media Collective). \nThe conversation focused on authentic authorship and the importance of filmmaker point of view. We explored issues of implicit and explicit bias\, extractive storytelling\, and who has “the right” to tell which stories. Panelists offered\, too\, first-hand experiences with directing or producing BIPOC stories or dealing with projects with a western/white gaze both in western countries and the global south.
