Filmmakers, sometimes it’s okay to lie… for the right reasons. (Watch til the end for some bonus advice!)

At our #FiPresents screening of ‘The Musical’, director/producer Giselle Bonilla and screenwriter/producer Alexander Heller shared some of their best advice for filmmakers just starting out.

Starring Will Brill, Gillian Jacobs and Rob Lowe, ‘The Musical’ is in theaters now!

Want more filmmaker wisdom? Join us at #FiForum26 this weekend in LA, September 25–26. Passes are still available at the link in bio. 🎟️
