Nest-supported films at Full Frame Documentary Film Festival
We are proud to see two Nest-supported and two AlumNest films at the 25th Annual Full Frame Documentary Film Festival, which will be held online from Thursday, April 7 through Sunday, April 10.
Full Frame’s lineup includes 19 films, out of 37, directed or co-directed by women or nonbinary filmmakers.
Mama Bears
dir. & prod. Daresha Kyi
prod. Laura Tatham
Mama Bears is an intimate exploration of two “mama bears”—conservative, Christian mothers who have become fierce advocates for LGBTQ+ people—and a young lesbian whose struggle for self-acceptance exemplifies why the mama bears are so important.
Mama Bears is a 2019 (Egg)celerator Lab grantee.
We are egg-cited to announce that the tickets for this film are sold out!

This film is only available to viewers in the United States.
Mija
dir. & prod. Isabel Castro
prod. Tabs Breese, Yesenia Tlahuel
With Doris’ voice as our guide, Mija uses VHS archive, verité footage, and camcorder vlogging to tell the story of two young women’s coming-of-age journeys as they look for success and belonging. The film is an immensely emotional and intimate portrait honoring the resilience of immigrants and their children.
Mija is a 2021 (Egg)celerator Lab grantee.
