As we continue celebrating the 45th Directors Lab, we wanted to share more reflections from lab alumni — voices that speak to the deep personal and creative impact of this extraordinary space.
Oscar-winning filmmaker Roger Ross Williams recently shared:
“The lab gave me confidence that my voice was important, that my point of view was important, and I wasn’t trying to fit into anyone else’s box.”
And that confidence, he says, came from being welcomed into a space that encouraged vulnerability and authenticity:
“The beautiful thing about the lab and about the beautiful, amazing Michelle Satter is that she is so nurturing, in that she allows you to express your deepest vulnerabilities. She allows you to go there and feel safe. It got to a point where I would just see Michelle and start crying.”
These moments matter — and they’re made possible by people like you.
As we celebrate this 45-year milestone, your support can help make space for the next wave of artists to tell their stories. Please consider a gift of $45, $450, or $4,500, or any amount you are able to contribute, to help keep the spirit of the lab alive for future generations. |
