My Film, All We’ve Got, is Finished

I’m thrilled to share the news that my first documentary film, All We’ve Got, is now complete! This feature-length film is a personal exploration of LGBTQ women’s communities, cultures, and social justice work through the lens of the spaces they create, from bars to bookstores to arts and political hubs.

Watch the trailer for the film, learn a bit more about it, read the press its been getting, and find details about upcoming screenings on the project’s website.

As a queer woman who has participated in some of the spaces featured in the film, this project has meant a lot to me in the making, and now I’m thrilled to be able to start sharing it with everyone. Women Make Movies has come on board as the distributor, and with their help we’re now taking booking inquiries here.

I also want to say that I couldn’t have gotten to this point without hundreds of peoples’ help at so many moments along the way or without the thousands of people who created and supported the many spaces I visited and the ones featured in the film. The only reason this film exists is because these spaces and communities exist, and because people gave their time, energy, money, and support along the way to me and to those spaces. Thank you to every one of you!
