2024 Digital Day

When you sit down to watch a film, you are watching a piece of art shaped by a director’s specific point of view. But it doesn’t end there. A filmmaker’s values also inform how they navigate funding, festivals and distribution, particularly for films of a sensitive nature. Hear from two filmmakers whose artistic practise is informed by their values and worldviews.
