The Groundbreaker Program is committed to educating our audience and community about structural racism and the importance of working toward racial equity through film, while also elevating and supporting filmmakers of color to ensure that these stories are told by artists who share lived experiences. With that in mind, our Groundbreaker Shorts program is a collection of short films sharing racially diverse stories made by racially diverse filmmakers.
