Growing up, Angela Vaut's parents never censored what films she was allowed to view. In retrospect, this early and unfettered exposure to films of all kinds and in all possible languages was critical to her self-guided maturation process. Through these films, Angela was able to glean insights into the complex range of human experiences and emotions. Films not only ignited new ideas and feelings, but the act of watching films with others also served as a medium for growth, discovery, and connection.

Angela enjoys watercolor painting, writing pen to paper, and trying to get the attention of any dog she crosses paths with.

Purpose and Values

Talent is distributed, but opportunity is not.

We are determined to make it more accessible for communities that have been long overlooked and denied having opportunities in film.

Make everyone seen and heard. THE WORLD NEEDS OTHER VERSIONS.

There is so much that has been unsaid. There are many things that need to be expressed.

Uplift under recognized voices in film.

Break the barriers imposed. People drive our work.
