À propos de Iyabo
I am an award winning writer, director, and producer that strives to tell stories from under-explored perspectives, and to reflect the dynamic humanity of women and people of color. My latest short ME TIME is a black feminist comedy about masturbation, which has played over 20 festivals nationwide and picked up nine awards including Best Comedy, Best Director, Best Performance, and Best Editing. I’m currently developing my first feature film, KAYLA & EDDIE EN FRANÇAIS, about an estranged black father and daughter reconnecting in Paris. For this project, I was a fellow in the Sundance Film Festival’s 2019 Talent Forum and in the Sundance Film Institute’s 2018 Screenwriting Intensive, and was awarded a 2019 SFFILM Rainin Screenwriting Grant.
