Chicago Feminist Film Festival Outreach Intern at Chicago Feminist Film Festival

Start Date/End Date: October 3, 2016 – March 31, 2017

Hours per week: ~8-10 hours/week

Job Description:

The Chicago Feminist Film Festival showcases independent film spanning documentary, fiction, and experimental genres, and that aims to address issues of gender, sexuality, race and other forms of inequality often missing from mainstream media. This in turn means creating inclusive public spaces for under-represented artists to share their work – particularly women, people of color, people with disabilities, queer, and transgender folks, given their struggle for visibility in the mainstream film industry. Another goal is forging connections between local, national, and international film and filmmakers, and by extension incorporating Columbia College students into that local-global network. The over-arching assumption behind the festival is that art plays a vital role in bringing people together and encouraging them to think deeply about issues of equality and social justice. This will be the 2nd year of the Chicago Feminist Film Festival, to be held March 1, 2, and 3 in Film Row Cinema.
