Minerva Navasca’s Bio:
Minerva Navasca is a Filipina-Canadian filmmaker exploring narratives of cultural dysphoria and girlhood with intimate specificity. Stating, “I want to make films about subjects that make me uncomfortable,” Minerva delves into perspectives steeped in anxiety and internalized shame, using the medium to interrogate the socio-political roots of these beliefs. She is a 2022 & 2024 TIFF Next Wave Alumni, and the winner of the 2024 BFI Future Film Festival Best Documentary Award. She collaborated with NBC Universal and Canada Walk of Fame as part of the Future Storytellers Program.
A conversation with Minerva @minervanavasca, a conversation about being Filipino-Canadian, being a female POC filmmaker and the filmmaking industry, and creating film and art that explores and digs into one’s experiences that are often uncomfortable and hard to process.
