Your Monster Panel With Director/Writer Caroline Lindy

Описание: “Without WIF my career would not have started. They took a chance on me… I pitched [my idea] to some fancy people and no one was taking me seriously, except for you guys, and that was just really validating… and I’m just so so grateful.”- Caroline Lindy, Director of Your Monster, and WIF Production Program Alumn.

When Caroline was in the WIF Production Program (2019), her WIF Mentors Kira Carstensen and Melanie Donkers, who were at the time working at Merman, loved her short film project so much they came on to develop the feature. Your Monster ultimately premiered at Sundance in 2024 and is now streaming on HBO Max.


Founded in 1973 as Women In Film Los Angeles, WIF advocates for and advances the careers of women working in the screen industries—in front of and behind the camera, across all levels of experience—to achieve parity and transform culture.

We work to change culture through our distinguished programs, including mentoring, speaker and screening series, a production training program, writing labs, film finishing funds, legal aid, and an annual financing intensive. WIF advocates for gender parity through research, education, and media campaigns. And, we build a community centered around these goals, anchored by our signature events, including the WIF Annual Gala and Female Oscar Nominees Party, along with programs honoring the achievements of women in Hollywood, like the Legacy Series. Membership is open to all screen industry professionals.
