Highlighting writers, directors, and producers you hear these “Untold Stories” from the people who developed their careers by pursuing paths that very few women have gone before.  The panel will be followed by a special presentation of The Rainbow Brainstorm by Toronto based filmmaker Makda Musa along with select film screenings.
