About this Event
Unbothered. Delusional. Strong. Ambitious... or just trying our best. Men disappoint. Friends show up. Screens blur reality. Sometimes we're the "crazy" ones. Sometimes a robot friend helps us find the courage to break through. In the end, we're all just chasing self-love and acceptance.
Six women filmmakers. Full mess. Full heart. Boldly unapologetic. Because well-behaved women seldom make history.
Presented by Rachel Michiko Whitney, Josephine Green Zhang, UCLA TFT, and Impact24 PR.
Join us for an intimate screening followed by a Q&A with the filmmakers and a casual reception to celebrate bold storytelling and the women behind the camera.
