About R.A.

As an LGBTQ+ artist, I believe film has the power to inform, transform and change our society. Film has the capability of helping individuals get in touch with and ignite empathy, compassion, and even their own creativity. Through the film experience, we are transported to another time, another culture, or another place; helping us to see the world through different eyes, giving us the opportunity to grow and learn.
