SUMMARY:Transcendent Storytelling Members
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:Cents and Sensibility
DESCRIPTION:Breaking Through the Lens joined Film Fatales at the Toronto International Film Festival for an in person panel discussion about making meaningful change in the world of film financing with Apoorva Guru (Producer\, Joyland)\, April Shih (Founder\, Diversity Hire)\, Luis De Filippis (Director\, Something You Said Last Night)\, Nikkia Moulterie (Producer\, Nanny)\, and Sophia Dilley (SVP\, Concord Originals). Moderated by Jasmin Morrison (Sky Original Film).  \nThe constant search for funding is one of the hardest aspects of creating a film. Access to finance and budget size are the major barriers for under-represented groups in the industry. This talk brought together directors\, producers\, sales agents and financiers who walk the walk to find creative ways to fund a diverse slate of projects. Through their experiences\, we explored how one can move the needle on whose story gets to be told and what you can do to find funding for your films!
