Some Things | Vol. 59: The power of film"I think empathy is a beautiful thing. I think that's the power of film though. We have one of the most powerful, one of the greatest communicative tools known to man...” Michelle Rodriguez"Whether it's the story or message within it, the purpose behind it, or the craft that goes into making it, film can inspire us, challenge us to have difficult conversations, & transform how we connect with others.This was one of the driving factors we developed our Something™ Originals platform to enable ourselves & the creators we work with to challenge cultural norms, reframe how we think about certain subjects & provide an opportunity for underrepresented creators to work with brands & reach a wider audience through film.So, after the BAFTA's & as we head into Oscar's season here are Some Things to inspire you this week:
