Panel Discussion - Daisy Friedman in conversation with Superfest Emcee and 2023 Juror Matthew Alaniz.
Join us after Saturday's Superfest screenings at the Freight and Salvage for a panel and Q&A with filmmaker, writer, and director Daisy Friedman, moderated by Superfest Emcee and 2023 Juror Matthew Alaniz.
Daisy Friedman is a disabled writer and director based out of New York City. She is currently getting her undergraduate degree in Film Studies at Barnard College of Columbia University. Daisy is interested in exploring the complex relationship between embodiment, disfigurement, and desirability of underrepresented communities through film. "As You Are," Daisy's directorial debut, won Superfest 2023's Best of Festival Award.
