A Message to our Community

On behalf of the Board of Rocky Mountain Women’s Film, I am writing to express the profound sadness and horror we feel regarding the mass shooting that took place last night at Club Q. It is difficult to find language that adequately meets such violence, perhaps because there is no right language, or perhaps because language feels like it loses more power every time we have to repeat it.

With this gift we will match, dollar for dollar, every donation made to RMWF, up to $35,000. My dad was a storyteller. He started every story with a thesis statement – something that I teased him about continuously. “Always read the fine print…” “Never pay a speeding ticket with a check made out personally to the judge…” true ..read more
