The recipients include Brydie O’Connor for Love, Barbara.

Future Of Film Is Female (The FOFIF), the NYC based non-profit dedicated to amplifying the work of all women and non-binary filmmakers, announced its Fall 2021 Short Film Fund recipients. Founded in 2018, The FOFIF awards grants three times a year with partner companies, Heard City and Nice Shoes, to offer post-production grants.

“We are incredibly grateful to announce our support of the six filmmakers whose upcoming projects were selected in our Fall 2021 Short Film Fund cycle,” said The FOFIF Founder Caryn Coleman. “Fitting with our mission to help get diverse stories out into the world, these brilliant projects uniquely explore identity (Judaism, divorce, sexuality), work rivalry, and the life of pioneering filmmaker Barbara Hammer.”

The Filmmakers receive $1,000 for their short films at any production stage, and one short will receive post-production sound mix and editing courtesy of Head City, valued at $16,000. In addition to the Short Film Fund, recipients’ projects will receive promotional, exhibition, and community support from The FOFIF.
