Day of Caring

Film Fatales LA Community Circle

Sat. January 17th 2026 9am-1pm PT

Currently, 1 in 5 people in Los Angeles experience hunger. Join Film Fatales and the Los Angeles Regional Food Bank in the fight against hunger in our local communities. Help assemble food packages for children, families, and seniors across Los Angeles County. The food packages consist of shelf-stable food items such as grains, canned fruits and vegetables, and protein. Together, we will be sorting and packing produce for over 29,000 people who face food insecurity in Los Angeles, and we will get to know each other better in the process. Capacity is limited to 30 people. All guests must RSVP separately in advance. Upon registration, you will receive an email confirmation with all of the logistics. Participants must be 18 and up and wear closed-toe shoes. Limited on-site parking. See you there!

From Script to Screen

Making Movies in the Current Landscape

Sun. January 25th 2026 4pm-6pm MT

Please join Film Fatales and United Airlines for a panel discussion and reception during the Sundance Film Festival. Discover groundbreaking works of independent cinema in this panel highlighting visionary filmmakers who directed feature films premiering at Sundance including Josephine Decker (Chasing Summer), Liz Sargent (Take Me Home), and NB Mager (Run Amok). Moderated by Imani Davis (American Cinematheque). At a time when funding for the arts is drying up, learn from Film Fatales members with Sundance premieres about how they got their films funded and made. How helpful are proof of concepts? What types of institutional support or corporate sponsorships are available? What is the path forward in the current economic climate? Learn about evolving techniques in storytelling, the importance of diverse perspectives, and how these iconic filmmakers are pushing the boundaries of cinema on screen and off. Followed by a networking reception presented by United Airlines.
