Call for Videographer

Leading up to EuroPride 2023 in Valletta, MGRM are planning on celebrating the diversity of Malta’s LGBTIQ+ community through a short documentary.

The main focus of this documentary is to gather the voices of the LGBTIQ community, those allied to the community or who represent LGBTIQ voices. Through a diverse selection of individuals, we aim to create a documentary that truly shows the plethora of ideas and opinions, and different intersections of the local LGBTIQ+ community. 

An open workshop with local LGBTIQ+ people interested in contributing to the idea will be held in February, to further drive the documentary into their desired direction. This would enhance the idea of having a community led documentary.
