“I’m incredibly proud of our Through Her Lens alumnae, a tremendously talented group of women filmmakers who are making waves within the industry, including A.V. Rockwell, Numa Perrier, Nikyatu Jusu, Kat Coiro, Sonejuhi Sinha, Gabriella Moses, Hannah Peterson, Ani Simon-Kennedy, Laura Moss, Caroline Lindy, Shuchi Talati, the list goes on,” said Jane Rosenthal, co-founder and CEO of Tribeca Enterprises. “Together with Chanel, we are reshaping the landscape of Hollywood, and this year’s class of emerging talent is no exception. I can’t wait to see the ways in which they will leave their mark–we need their young, diverse voices and creativity now more than ever.”
Through Her Lens was founded in 2015 by Tribeca and Chanel and provides industry support, funding and artistic development to rising women and non-binary filmmakers in the United States. The program, which includes a star-studded lunch, takes place over three days and features workshops, one-on-one mentorship and various conversations with established filmmakers. At the end of the program, the participants pitch their project to a jury of experts and one team is chosen to receive full funding of their short film. The four other projects are awarded grant funds to support their development.
The Through Her Lens advisory committee was founded in 2023 and consists of Jane Fonda, Patty Jenkins, Laura Karpman, Greta Lee, A.V. Rockwell and Kerry Washington.
The 2024 jurors include Joanna Calo, Beanie Feldstein, Lucy Liu, Da’Vine Joy Randolph and Olivia Wilde. The mentors are Pamela Adlon, Molly Gordon, Jannicza Bravo and Mara Brock Akil. The conversation leaders will be Ruth E. Carter, Patty Jenkins and Laura Karpman.
