    Embracing Abundance in Business w/ Reaa Puri

    In this episode, we talk to bad feminist filmmaker Reaa Puri, an award-winning filmmaker, TEDx speaker, and co-founder of Breaktide Productions. Reaa talks about her journey of overcoming imposter syndrome and understanding her worth and value as a filmmaker. She shares how a twist of fate pushed her to overcome a mindset of scarcity and embrace one of abundance both individually and collectively through the work she does with the collective she co-founded, Breaktide. Reaa gets into the nitty gritty of filmmaking collectives such as deciding on projects, creating a sustainable model, and finding clients that align with collective visions. She ends with practical advice for women filmmakers to embrace their value and empower themselves through collectivity. Powered and distributed by Simplecast

    Nothing About Us, Without Us, is For Us

    Activist, filmmaker, and 2018 NeXt Doc Fellow, Courtney Symone Staton speaks candidly about the imperative for decolonizing documentary by focusing on her statement at 2019 True/False Film Festival. After the screening of "The Commons" by Suki Hawley & Michael Galinsky, Courtney concretely identified the difference of how student-led protests (which she was part of) are represented in their work versus her collaboratively produced film, “Silence Sam.” While both recount protests that led to the removal of the Silent Sam confederate statue from University of North Carolina’s campus, Courtney reflects on methods that center the experiences and autonomy for community self-representation. Her reflections provoke us to re-assess who gets to be behind the camera and accesses documentary pipelines.

    Filmmaking as Activism? with Mona Nicoara

    What does it mean to be a human rights activist and advocate and a filmmaker at the same time? Are they one identity or two separate endeavors? We talk to Romanian-born human rights activist and filmmaker Mona Nicoara about two of her films: Our School, a documentary following the de-segregation efforts meant to integrate Roma children in the Romanian school system; and The Distance Between Me and Me, a documentary centering Nina Cassian, a controversial Romanian poet whose complicated relationship with the totalitarian communist regime eventually led to her exile to the U.S. Mona’s exploration of the intersection of human rights and filmmaking, elucidates some of the ways in which the two might complement one another, how the practices relate, as well as the tensions that arise at their confluence.

    In this two-guest episode, we talk to Ameesha Joshi and Anna Sarkissian, the Canadian directors of With This Ring, a documentary on women boxers in India. They take us through the ten-year journey of creating their first feature film, explicating the reality and often the necessity, of documenting stories over an extended period of time.

    Healing through Filmmaking w/ Rebecca Byerly

    Back in January, we chat with Rebecca Byerly, a filmmaker, journalist and ultra marathon runner whose film Women of the Mountains examines a story of intergenerational trauma. We speak with Rebecca about her process of “waking up” to her own story — and when and how she decided to turn the camera on her family and herself. We explore what it means to make healing a goal of filmmaking, so that the stories we tell are transformational not only to our intended audiences but also to those with whom we have the most complex relationships and ourselves.

    Women Behind the Camera with Alexxiss Jackson

    Director and cinematographer Alexxiss Jackson shares her journey as a visual storyteller committed to social justice: from being an eight-year-old making home movies starring Transformers and Barbie dolls, to being one of few women of color in film school, to working double to get half the recognition on film sets. To our question "What is it like to be a woman of color in the film industry?" Alexxiss offers nuanced insights based on her personal experiences, touching on the racialized dynamics of the filmmaking industry and the absolute necessity of unrepresented voices to create spaces and opportunities of their own.

    Speaking My Truth: Organizing & Filmmaking in These Times

    Filmmaker, organizer, and impact producer Set Hernandez Rongkilyo waxes lyrical about how to bring together the worlds of storytelling and organizing in the service of building movements. They share their journey of feeling like the only person without a social security number to being connected to an entire universe of undocumented superheroes fighting in the migrant justice movement. Set reflects on how film is a sharp weapon that can be wielded in toxic or healing ways, and the unique role of the impact producer to support directors and producers in shaping film into a powerful tool for organizing and movements.
