They/Them | Writer & Director
“The Queer Writers Incubator has not only helped refresh my memory about many of the things I learned and loved in film school, but also taught so much more about digging deep into the importance of storytelling and the many layers that make a story.
These spaces are important because it uplifts LGBT stories and allows for a new wave of young, passionate writers to be heard in the South African entertainment industry; but more importantly it helps create a safety net for POC queer writers to come together and represent marginalised voices in bold and refreshing ways.”
