WHO WE ARE

We are a village – at the crossroads of art & advocacy – where storytellers, changemakers and nurturers come together to champion humanity through a maternal gaze. We center stories that foster empathy and connection to women, identity and the human experience.

mamafilm is a 501(c3) not-for-profit cinematic arts organization that is supported entirely by grants, sponsorships & donations.

WHAT WE DO

From fiscal sponsorship and production support, to distribution consulting and impact-forward exhibition – mamafilm serves as a cultivator, creator and curator of mission-aligned stories. 

WHY WE DO IT

Storytelling is a catalyst for connection. It helps us to discover our own identities and empathize with those around us. Media representation feeds our context of the world – in both familiar and extraordinary ways. It challenges us, and opens our eyes, and ears, to the lived experiences of others – both real and fictional – and nurtures our collective human spirit.
