Screenwriting incubator program Momentum is a flagship initiative of the Massimadi Foundation, designed to offer an annual mentorship program dedicated to the scriptwriting of audiovisual projects. This program is specifically aimed at scriptwriters who identify as Afro and belong to LGBTQ+ communities. The program enables them to develop and share their stories.
Program Objectives and Impact
The project aims to support and equip young Afro-queer talents in their artistic journey in order to:- Amplify their voices and provide visibility to often marginalized narratives.
- Raise public awareness by sharing authentic and diverse stories.
- Combat discrimination against LGBTQ+ communities, particularly those from Afro communities, through the power of audiovisual storytelling.
- Facilitate access to the film industry by providing the necessary tools to transform their ideas into concrete projects.
