First Cut

First Cut calls for transformative films that stem from socio-political inquiries. First Cut aims to host artistic interventions and radical responses to our international society and its politics. First Cut invites perspectives from multiple modes of production and backgrounds with which to read our political contexts and reshape a collective imagination. We especially encourage filmmakers with decolonial, feminist, queer and non-normative perspectives to submit their films.

First Cut is founded by Cyan Bae, Hattie Wade and Cristina Lavosi.
