This month, in collaboration with our partners Buffalo 8, the Female Film Club is proud to present Me Little Me which premiered in SXSW. This film is an honest, deep, and vulnerable story about Mya, an ambitious young woman who learns the hard way that life doesn’t pause when one decides it’s time to heal.

This film holds significant importance to us, as at the FFC, working on our mindset and mental health is always our top priority. We understand that the industry moves fast and doesn’t wait for anyone, but we firmly believe that taking the time to heal is more important than rushing ahead and crashing.

Me Little Me tells the story of Mya, who, in the early stages of recovery from an eating disorder, finds herself feeling particularly alone. As if balancing her mental health and relationships wasn’t hard enough, tension builds when she’s promoted in her male-dominated industry, where demanding expectations and unreliable coworkers add to her stress. As the pressure reaches an all-time high, cold reminders of her past begin to surface, challenging her to find day-to-day happiness. In this humble and heartbreaking journey, Mya embodies the complicated, exhausting, and lonely path toward finding even a little bit of self-love.

On October 23rd, FFC members will come together for a film chat roundtable to share thoughts and ideas about the film. This will be followed by a Q&A session with director Elizabeth Ayiku, where she’ll take us through her filmmaking journey, the creation of Me Little Me, and her current and future projects. Expect plenty of inspiration and words of wisdom! This Q&A will provide an abundance of advice and motivation to benefit each member's individual film journey.

At the FFC, we exclusively select films that inspire and drive change. We chose Me Little Me because we believe in stories that break boundaries, open our minds, challenge us to confront difficult realities, and return to the essential question of how to find self-love.

Join us for an evening of inspiration, learning, challenging certian norms and lots connection. We can’t wait to see you there!
