A very belated thank you to Film Independent (@filmindependent ) for honoring “Your Touch Makes Others Invisible” and director Rajee Samarasinghe with the 2026 Film Independent Spirit Award for Truer Than Fiction. We haven’t posted much since then, but we are so grateful for the life the film has continued to have over the past few months, and for all the festivals, spaces, writers, programmers, friends, and audiences who have screened, supported, and spent time with it. We’re excited to keep bringing the film to new audiences. We’re screening tonight in Los Angeles with Shadow Kitchen (@shadowkitchen_la ) at Coaxial Arts (@coaxialarts ) at 7pm. Link to tickets in bio. Come hang out with us!

Our film “all the love I could handle” will be screening at @americanblackfilmfestival this summer!!! Saturday, June 14th in Voices of Culture. Link in bio 🎟️ I am very grateful we were able to use her very art form to explore the memory of my grandmother, pioneer filmmaker Kathleen Collins, and the sacrifices she made to leave her legacy behind. This film is a love letter to my brilliant, resilient, and fearless mother. To all mothers who are artists, all artists who are mothers, and to the child inside all of us still asking to be seen!! “all the love i could handle is a re-imagining of the filmmaker’s mother’s young diary, unraveling the raw complexities of motherhood, artistic ambition, and the enduring sacrifices women have to make as mothers and artists. Based on the true family story of pioneer filmmaker Kathleen Collins (Losing Ground, 1982).” Made by the best crew out there 💌 Starring: @yasirlafond Breanna Williams & @officialsebrinapurcell Written & Directed by: @rubyrosecollins Produced by: @iskope @amesjward @ej__9000 Maggie Corona Goldstein, Solomon Turner @hellobenjaminfilms Co Producer: by @akacatalina Associate Producer: @ellis.richmond Assistant Directors: @sofieroses @yea_fool Director of Photography: @gemmadollgrossman Editor: @aneesayaasmeen Composer: @nylaesmith Production Design: @wilertilson @anniening @zorasc Costume Design: @colettelathan Assistant Camera: @sophiegemelasdp @lilnessyvonne James Bragg Gaffer: @kpatelcine Key Grip: @ondres3000 Tim Curtin G&E Swing: Jose Caldera, Danny Green DIT: @softboyhard Joshua Johnson Sound Recordist: @paulmasonaudio Wardrobe Asst: @whitelowgetlow HMU, SPFX: @mckenzie__mua Sound Design: @paulmasonaudio @nateflaks Re Recording Mix: @nateflaks VFX: @vfx_papi Colorist: Allister Arnold @fotokem_la & so many more.
