We will discuss Sav’s filmmaking journey, including the story behind Chasing Chasing Amy, its focus on LGBTQ+ film culture and identity, both of which he highlights in the film. We will also discuss Sav’s experience as a filmmaker and a nonprofit leader, as he is the Founder and Executive Director of the Transgender Film Center, in addition to advice he has for emerging creatives.
