CineFAM Awards Ceremony & Screening

October 24, 2021 @ 7:00 pm - 8:00 pm

Beauty Standards are not bound by the limits we currently see. Challenging and changing the idea of beauty is critical for self-acceptance. A wider scope of beauty is necessary.

Host: Veronica Antipolo

Part midlife crisis and sassy leap of faith, Veronica Antipolo started storytelling and comedy after getting let go from “a good job”. She’s the co-founder of Mosaic Untold Lives – a storytelling platform for Women of Color. Her stories and writing have been featured in Stories We Don’t Tell: The Book, CBC Radio’s The Doc Project and Reader’s Digest.  A cheerleader of women, Veronica hopes to connect people through producing, storytelling and comedy that showcase diverse narratives.  A single mom who’s sassy and real, Veronica refuses to miss any more moments not doing these things that she loves.
