Our guest this week is Oge Egbuonu - a filmmaker focused on disruptive and inspirational storytelling. Oge joins us to discuss her directorial debut,  (In)Visible Portraits. The film is a self-described "love letter to Black women, and a re-education for everyone else". Prior to becoming an independent filmmaker, Oge produced films like 'Loving' and 'Eye In The Sky' at Raindog Films. Oge shares with us her unconventional filmmaking journey, intensive research process, and strong creative vision behind (In)visible Portraits. Oge describes how she turned rejection into redirection, reclaiming the narrative for Black women, and how she hopes the film will help to cultivate change.
