"Yes, Mother!" an Official Selection in the Les Femmes Underground International Film Festival
I am so excited!! Our short film “Yes, Mother!” has been selected as one of the 30 shorts to screen next Spring at the Les Femmes Underground International Film Festival in Los Angeles, CA. There were over 5,000 applicants this year and I feel incredibly fortunate that we were selected. “Yes, Mother!” is the second film in my #1221FilmChallenge where I make one short each month.
Les Femmes Underground International’s mission is to equip, inform, influence, and mobilize womxn and allies in underground media. They aim to transform the landscape of cinema for women by creating opportunities and forums that accurately represent them. They generate innovative programming, which brings back the 'Riot Grrrl' mentality in the art world, thereby pushing and inspiring women to acquire more opportunities.
