Deaffest is currently working in partnership with BFI Network New Voices’ new scheme New Voices. The scheme is set up to provide support South West and Midlands based filmmakers in the development of their short film ideas. Nikki Stratton and Marilyn Willrich are both excited to be involved in New Voices and look forward to working with the filmmakers.
