If gatekeeping starts with festivals and reviewers, how can we demand that selections understand intersectionality and a plurality of voices? The session looks at how BIPOC (Black, Indigenous and people of colour) film programmers and film reviewers are joining forces to support a shift of power.
Speakers: Kaleem Aftab, reviewer, curator, producer, and author of the official Spike Lee biography, That’s My Story and I’m Sticking to It; Faridah Gbadamosi, writer, producer and filmmaker; Elma Tataragić, scriptwriter and curator; Bedatri Choudhury, writer and curator. Moderator: Paula Vaccaro, Producer, Pinball London.
