Our NEH grant was cut

Our NEH GRANT was cut. On April 2nd, President Trump cut all NEH grants approved under the Biden administration, which included our film. We need your help to help fund post production, festival and distribution expenses, starting with our world premiere summer 2025. Federal cuts to arts grants have hurt the entire independent film infrastructure fromfilm festivals, to public television, to libraries and museums that screen films like our. We need your help to power our festival tour, community engagement, impact strategy and educational goals and ensure our film My Underground Mother is seen far and wide, at a time when antisemitism has surged, women’s bodily autonomy is under threat and their histories are being erased, immigrants are brutally being attacked and Holocaust denial is thriving.
