Dani Gadishaw
Director
Jamaican-born Canadian filmmaker starts her Directorial debut with three short films after spending over a decade on the logistics side of the film world. With dreams of directing, she finally had something she wanted to share, and the first iteration of that is in the perspective of women in various internal and external conflicts in the “Looking Through series.” The Looking Through series is a collection of vignettes covering many of the conflicts and situations a woman experiences in her life, from the mundane to the fantastically out-of-this-world scenarios to the deepest depths of pain. Dani is very happy to share the first installment of these shorts after a long journey.
