We just found out that one of our Youth FX films, FALLING, has been accepted to the 2015 Los Angeles Film Festival!
FALLING will be screened as part of the Future Filmmakers Showcase, which also includes a day of workshops and mentoring for the directors of selected films. This is a big deal for us, and a huge opportunity for our youth filmmakers, and the Youth FX program. We're asking for your support to get to LA Film Fest to particpate in this incredible and unique opportunity!
We need at least $5000 to send our Youth FX crew to LA Film Fest, which is one of the largest film festivals in the country. LAFF attracts over 75,000 people to screenings, events and workshops over the course of 5 days.
With your support we can help these talented young people get there! Please consider donating and help us spread the word!

About The Film: FALLING (10 min. Narrative)
Dir. by Maya Suchak & Imani Peterkin
Starring: Mikayla Applebery & Cici Rivas
As two girls discover their feelings for each other, one of them is forced to choose between her new relationship and her father's disapproval. FALLING is an experimental narrative film that explores the challenges faced by LGBTQ youth as they navigate the intersections of love and family.
"FALLING underscores — with economy, emotion and creative camerawork — the pressures facing LGBTQ youth."
