Circe Films
About
Films by Circe is a production company devoted to dismantling the male gaze one vision at a time. Formed in Los Angeles in 2019 by female filmmaking duo Allyson Brainard-Smith and Jenn Fernald, they have written, produced, and released nine short films that reformulate the female narrative while empowering collaborators and viewers alike.
By challenging long-established filmmaking stereotypes, Films by Circe cultivates high-quality films on a provident budget that pass the Bechdel test with flying colors each and every time. Their mission is not only to create a space where womens’ voices are valued, but also to build a platform for them to stand on.
