Queering the Filmmaking Process – A Conversation

Join Damn These Heels and local queer filmmakers, Jack Hessler, Marissa Lila, and Amanda Madden, for a facilitated conversation about the importance of not just telling queer stories but queering the filmmaking process itself. Through prompts and dialogue, we will explore the radical strategies we are already using and/or envision using in the future to make truly queer films. From who and how we build our teams, to how we plan our productions with more inclusivity, to how we navigate the edit with fluidity, we will dream together about how we can expand the definition and possibility of queer filmmaking. This conversation is open to local filmmakers who identify as members of the 2SLGBTQIA+ community.
