rePROFilm connects bold films centering reproductive justice with audiences around the globe.
rePROFilm was founded as a virtual film festival during the pandemic with an initial grant from the George R. Tiller, MD Memorial Fund for the Advancement of Women’s Health. In 2020 and 2021, rePROFilm operated as a five-day virtual film festival, featuring movies of all kinds from around the world, and conversations with leading reproductive rights advocates and activists including Alexis McGill Johnson, Dr. Kathleen Tarr, Ceclie Richards, Ariana DeBose, Martha Plimpton, Amber Tamblyn and many more. (You can see many of the conversations on our YouTube channel here.)
From 2022 to 2024, rePROFilm produced 28 versions of “The Periodical,” a a free monthly publication featuring a mission-aligned short film & interview podcast, Spotify playlist and other resources.
Over the years, our in-person screenings and events have cultivated community and conversation across Kansas, Massachusetts, New York, California and Ohio.
Through our artist support program, Collective Lens, offered in partnership with Peace is Loud, we offer impact training & over $60,000 worth of grants to 22 projects under the reproductive health and justice umbrella, including feature fiction and documentary films, shorts, experimental, animation and series.
We value diversity & representation on- & off-screen. rePROFilm storytellers are 98% women and 60% BIPOC.
While rePROFilm continues to evolve our community as the world changes around us, we remain deeply committed to activating the power of on-screen storytelling as a catalyst for knowledge, intention and action.
