Authenticity, cultural representation, and boundary pushing statement filmmaking is at the heart of the most memorable stories told on the big screen.

Join a selection of our amazing Top Shorts filmmakers to discuss representation, diaspora filmmaking, and social justice filmmaking. Expect thoughtful conversation, practical insights, and honest reflections on using the screen to push for meaningful change and create representative films that make a statement.
