The team at @NFMLA is grateful to @lacountybos @supervisorkathrynbarger and her outstanding 5th District team, including Monica Banken and Diana Oganesyan. We also commend @countyofla Supervisor @lindseyphorvath for her ongoing support and for being represented by 3rd District Arts and Community Services Deputy Rachel Fox during the 2nd CA Indie Film Task Force meeting organized by NFMLA. This important gathering took place in the 3rd District at the iconic Sunset Gower Studios, thanks to one of our longest-standing supporters, @hudsonppi / @sunsetstudios.global. 🎬

Our request to the Supervisors was straightforward: allow us to assist film and TV professionals by supporting the County in fundraising efforts to establish a sustainable film fund. This fund would provide modest financial incentives, in the form of production grants, for low-budget feature film productions in the LA area. We asked that the Supervisors introduce a new motion that reassigns directives from a motion previously introduced by LA County BOS in July 2025. 📝

Co-authored by Barger and Horvath, the 2025 motion directed @econoppla (DEO) to consult with the Center for Strategic Partnerships and @lacountyarts (LACAC) to explore potential funding partners for launching a recommended public-private Evergreen Fund of $80-100 million, focusing on new technology start-ups in the film and television sector.

We believe this fund should instead be established as a trust to provide annual feature film production grants. If our Supervisors agree, we are prepared to rally the community to support these efforts! Without filmmakers, who will utilize these technologies? How can those companies succeed without subscription revenue and purchases from content creators? Our friends in the City and County of @sfgov have a local incentive, and it is time for @lacity and LA County to step up for an industry that has boosted our region for more than a century. 🚀

Thank you to our filmmakers, industry partners, staff, and board members for sharing your voices. It was incredibly impactful for our leaders to understand the challenges each of you face and to hear your thoughts on what can be done! 🎉

This important gathering took place in the 3rd District at the iconic Sunset Gower Studios, thanks to one of our longest-standing supporters, @hudsonppi / @sunsetstudios.global. 🎬

Our request to the Supervisors was straightforward: allow us to assist film and TV professionals by supporting the County in fundraising efforts to establish a sustainable film fund. This fund would provide modest financial incentives, in the form of production grants, for low-budget feature film productions in the LA area. We asked that the Supervisors introduce a new motion that reassigns directives from a motion previously introduced by LA County BOS in July 2025. 📝

Co-authored by Barger and Horvath, the 2025 motion directed @econoppla (DEO) to consult with the Center for Strategic Partnerships and @lacountyarts (LACAC) to explore potential funding partners for launching a recommended public-private Evergreen Fund of $80-100 million, focusing on new technology start-ups in the film and television sector.

We believe this fund should instead be established as a trust to provide annual feature film production grants. If our Supervisors agree, we are prepared to rally the community to support these efforts! Without filmmakers, who will utilize these technologies? How can those companies succeed without subscription revenue and purchases from content creators? Our friends in the City and County of @sfgov have a local incentive, and it is time for @lacity and LA County to step up for an industry that has boosted our region for more than a century. 🚀

Thank you to our filmmakers, industry partners, staff, and board members for sharing your voices. It was incredibly impactful for our leaders to understand the challenges each of you face and to hear your thoughts on what can be done! 🎉

The team at @NFMLA is grateful to @lacountybos @supervisorkathrynbarger and her outstanding 5th District team, including Monica Banken and Diana Oganesyan. We also commend @countyofla Supervisor @lindseyphorvath for her ongoing support and for being represented by 3rd District Arts and Community Services Deputy Rachel Fox during the 2nd CA Indie Film Task Force meeting organized by NFMLA.

🌧️ Some storms force you to face what you’ve been avoiding.

Leo Lets It Rain is part of the lineup for NFMLA’s May Monthly Film Festival, featured in the InFocus: Disabilities program. 🎬✨

Synopsis: Leo, a trans man with undiagnosed ADHD, is on his way to win back his ex-girlfriend, Dani, when he gets caught in a storm. A panic attack takes over Leo after the rain ruins his apology gift for her. As he reflects on their relationship and his behavior in and out of it, Leo realizes he's chasing after Dani for the wrong reasons. Instead of addressing the root cause of the state of dysfunction he often finds himself in, he'd come to rely on her as a crutch. Leo realizes he must repair his relationship with himself instead.
