IMPACT CAMPAIGN
Disregarding women’s voices is not only unjust—it is perilous. When society instinctively disbelieves women, it perpetuates a cycle of harm that spans every sphere of life.
The Cassandra Project confronts these stakes head-on through an innovative cinematic journey—three narrative short films that illuminate the devastating consequences of disregarded truth.
Each story centers on a woman whose voice is dismissed, her truth ignored, her courage overlooked. Together, these films challenge the audience to see what is too often unseen, to feel what is too often minimized, and to act where silence has prevailed.
Our mission is to provoke imperative conversations about this ongoing issue, open the eyes of the audience, and inspire change for the good of all.
