What We Do
Building upon the media justice organizing of other undocumented leaders, the Undocumented Filmmakers Collective (UFC) tackles the systemic inequities that undocumented immigrants face in the field of filmmaking, by centering the expertise of undocumented people not only as sources of stories but more importantly as creators, artists, and primary audiences.
We empower these storytellers by building creative pathways, advocating for systemic equity in film and media, and sustaining a collaborative community rooted in autonomy, care, and artistic freedom. We envision an equitable film and media ecosystem where all creators, regardless of immigration status, are resourced, recognized, and in control of their creative futures. By building community power, forming industry partnerships, and challenging structural barriers, we work toward a new standard of opportunity and representation.
