Thanks to the following sponsors' critical support, we’ve been able to fund About Face and turn it into both a compelling documentary and a working film that can be used as a tool to help others take action and reform mental health. Without our generous and socially progressive sponsors, this film would not have been made.
Chicken & Egg Pictures matches strategically timed funding with respectful, collaborative and forthright mentorship. We provide grants and executive producing support to women filmmakers who are working to address the social justice, equity and human rights issues of our time, locally, nationally and globally.
