POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

The She/Her Fest in Seattle was a blast, and we won this awesome “Ruthless Bitch” award. I am honored.

“This award goes to the filmmaker whose work cuts deep. You watch it, and it speaks to a bold truth that many will not speak. The Ruthless Bitch represents how often women must be ruthless to be heard.”

Thank you for a beautiful festival, @sheherfest.

What an incredible celebration of films by, for, and about badass women! It’s pretty special to spend a day surrounded by filmmakers and stories full of heart, courage, humor, and purpose.

I was honored to receive the “Worldly Whore” Award for Global Impact Storytelling. She/Her Fest intentionally reclaims sexist slurs through its awards, pairing them with qualities they want to celebrate in women. “Worldly Whore” recognizes socially driven storytelling that challenges perspectives and stands up for change.

Most of all, I feel incredibly lucky to have had the opportunity to capture and share the work of Cátia and Daphne @sitio.aimotua , two extraordinary women transforming a degraded landscape in rural Brazil through agroforestry, food sovereignty, and an enormous amount of care.

🇺🇸 U.S. PREMIERE — 9/19 at @sheherfest in Seattle!

Earlier this year, a major U.S. doc festival told us She Measures the Earth was “beautifully crafted,” but “too far a stretch”from their 2026 program.

All-women crew. Women scientists. Art + science.

Maybe we just needed a festival bold enough to stretch with us. 😉

See you at @sheherfest in Seattle on Sept 19!🤟🧊❤️

🎬✨ Support women. Support queer art. Support independent film.

I’m incredibly proud to serve on the Board of Directors for SHE/HER FEST🩷, a nonprofit film festival dedicated to creating opportunities for emerging women filmmakers and amplifying stories that deserve to be seen.

🎟️ On Saturday, July 25, we’re coming together for a night of community, karaoke, raffles, and fundraising to help make this year’s festival possible.

❤️‍🔥 Independent film doesn’t happen without community. Every raffle ticket purchased, every donation made, every drink shared, and every person who walks through the door helps fund a platform where women creators can tell their stories and be celebrated.

Whether you’re a filmmaker, film lover, or simply someone who believes women deserve more opportunities behind the camera...we would love to see you there. 💜 @sheherfest

📍 Peace of Mind Brewing
🗓 Saturday, July 25, 2026
🕖 7:00 PM

If you can’t attend, please consider donating or sharing this post. Every bit of support helps us continue building something meaningful.

Let’s show up for women in film. 🎥✨

After receiving the Relentless S%#t Award for Soul Tie, I had the chance to talk with the founder of @sheherfest about the genesis of this powerful program. Take a listen to Part 1 of our chat.

“If there’s specific resistance to women making movies, I just choose to ignore that as an obstacle for two reasons: I can’t change my gender, and I refuse to stop making movies.” — Kathryn Bigelow

Please support this incredible festival that embodies this quote—creating space for lower-budget films to shine, be seen, heard, and validated.
