June 9, 2023
Presented by Hilton - Self-described “Jewitch mama and queer filmmaker” Rivkah Beth Medow made waves for queer and disabled cinema when her project Holding Moses was shortlisted for Best Documentary Short Film at the 95th Academy Awards. Though this may be her most recent lauded film, this isn’t her first time working to tell these underrepresented communities’ stories.

Holding Moses follows dancer and former Broadway performer Randi Rader as she recounts her experience raising her middle child and only son, Moses. Moses was born with Phelan-McDermid Syndrome, an extremely rare condition stemming from chromosomal issues that causes various physical and developmental complications.
