<p>BFI Doc Society, in partnership with FWD-Doc, is hosting a virtual Delegation of six UK filmmakers, producers, and editors who identify as disabled, D/deaf, and/or neurodivergent. In this virtual discussion on the spirit of independence, filmmakers <a href="https://chickeneggpics.org/grantee/is-there-anybody-out-there/">Ella Glendining</a>, <a href="https://chickeneggpics.org/wp-content/uploads/2022/05/Queer-Futures-Press-Release.pdf">Lindsey Dryden</a>, and other filmmakers will elaborate on what voice, audience, and success mean to them as disabled filmmakers, and how reframing &#8220;access&#8221; beyond accessibility can create and sustain space for radical new voices in the documentary industry.&nbsp;</p>

<h3 class="wp-block-heading"><em>Boycott</em></h3>



<h5 class="wp-block-heading">dir &amp; prod. Julia Bacha<br>prod. Suhad Babaa, Daniel J. Chalfen</h5>



<p></p>



<p><span style="font-weight: 400;">NYC Premiere<br></span><span style="font-weight: 400;">Monday, Nov. 14&nbsp;<br></span><a href="https://www.docnyc.net/film/boycott/"><span style="font-weight: 400;">Tickets here </span></a><span style="font-weight: 400;">&nbsp;<br></span>Boycotts have long been a tool used by Americans rallying for social and political change, from civil rights leaders to anti-apartheid activists. But in recent years, 33 U.S. states have introduced anti-boycott legislation or executive orders designed to penalize individuals and companies who choose to boycott Israel due to its human rights record. <em>Boycott</em> looks at the cases of a news publisher in Arkansas, an attorney in Arizona and a speech therapist in Texas whose careers are threatened by the harsh measures of these new laws. A legal thriller with “accidental plaintiffs” at the center, the film is a bracing look at the far-reaching implications of anti-boycott legislation and an inspiring tale of everyday Americans standing up to protect our rights in an age of shifting politics and threats to freedom of speech.</p>
