Chanel and the Tribeca Film Festival have announced the participants of the eleventh edition of Through Her Lens, the women’s filmmaker programme that pairs emerging directors with mentors and production support.
The collaboration deepens with every edition, turning an anniversary sponsorship into support for building careers rather than dressing single appearances.
For Chanel the programme extends a long-standing commitment to women in film, lending the maison’s name to craft that works within the frame rather than on the street.
The mentorship structure matters as much as the funding, pairing filmmakers with industry veterans in a field where access is often the scarcest resource.
The initiative hands selected filmmakers the resources to develop and complete short films while the house supplies a wardrobe built around the discipline of the screen.
