Building Our Own Table

La Femme Lens was born from the first-generation experience - from creators who grew up without access to the industry resources, mentorship and pathways that others take for granted. This collective began as a dream to build a space where learning, collaboration and care are the foundation of how we grow together.

We built independent productions led by femme and non-binary filmmakers, hosted accessible workshops, shared resources and opened doors for members to step into new creative roles with confidence. And just as importantly, we prioritized our well-being. We encourage rest, self-care, wellness practices and sustainable creative habits because thriving artists make a powerful impact.

La Femme Lens isn’t just a collective… it’s a community dedicated to honing our craft, expanding opportunities and ensuring everyone has a seat at our table

Our Mission

La Femme Lens is a femme-led, gender-expansive collective creating intentional spaces where filmmakers can learn, collaborate and thrive. Our mission is to reshape how film sets and creative communities operate by centering access, community and sustainable creative practices.
