The borderland bustles with an abundance of talent and love for filmmaking. One of the organizations who recognizes the importance of cultivating and showcasing these talents in our community and at the appropriate venues is Femme Frontera. Founded and led by women and gender-expansive filmmakers from the U.S.-Mexico border region of El Paso, Texas, Femme Frontera centers the experiences of women and gender-expansive people. Additionally, they generate resources and support for filmmakers whose lived border experiences inform their connection to those stories. In this edition of On Film, guest host Carlos de La Torre welcomes Femme Frontera Filmmaker Ryan Rox to talk about their Mini Film Festival and how it centers around the trans narrative.
