INSPIRED Takeover

Join Cables & Cameras and guests for a takeover of Watershed from Sat 25 - Mon 27 Sept online and in-venue.

Over the three days, there will be a whole range of conversations, screenings and webinars that will explore Black/POC culture and talent both in front of and behind the camera and ask questions such as: how do we understand our own power?; how do we navigate and develop practices that not only makes space for us and our stories but also encourages collaborations and paves the way for the next generation of creatives?; and why is it key for Black/POC led organisations and creatives to be active in nurturing and commissioning up-and-coming talent from those communities?

Join us in finding some of the answers and raising the questions that will help build Black and POC communities and creative careers into a sustainable future. The INSPIRED Takeover will feature contributions from MANDEM, Bristol Black Horror Club, Fully Focussed and Cinema GOLAU to name a few of the creative organisations involved.

Cables + Cameras have partnered with BFI NETWORK South West for this ‘in conversation’ event with BFI Vision Awardee Producer and Writer Joy Gharoro-Akpojotor. Hosted by Adam Murray (Bristol-based Film Programmer/Writer/Broadcaster).


Joy recently produced Blue Story, written and directed by Andrew “Rapman” Onwubolu for Paramount and BBC Films. In 2019, she was nominated for Breakthrough Producer Award at the BIFAs. In 2016 she produced White Colour Black, which premiered at the BFI London Film Festival and earned director Joseph A.

Joy set up film production company Joi Productions, to focus on Queer, Black and Female-led work. She currently has projects in development with the BFI, BBC Films and Film Four.

 C+C is a Bristol-based networking and film exhibition event for Filmmakers and Creatives of Colour. Its motivation is to encourage and empower independent Black and Brown Filmmakers / Creatives in the South West to tell their untold stories. Over the last three years C+C has grown from strength to strength with a bimonthly film night, which has created a platform and networking hub to screen, share work and explore opportunities to collaborate in the city.
