šŸ”„ This isn’t just a film. This is a conversation we ALL need to have.

I'm coming to you straight from the Tribeca Film Festival—one of the most prestigious, culture-shifting film events in the world. Founded by Robert De Niro after 9/11 to revive NYC’s creative spirit, Tribeca is where bold voices, visionary filmmakers, and fearless stories get the global spotlight.

šŸŽ„ In this powerful and personal interview, I sit down with writer/director Uttera Singh to talk about her breakout film Pinch—a raw, emotional story of a young woman reclaiming her power after sexual assault. But let’s be real: this isn’t just about assault. It’s about shame. Identity. Healing. Culture. Family. And what it really takes to own your story when the world tells you to stay small.

Uttera, a fierce, talented, young woman of color, opens up about her feminist upbringing, the pressure to stay silent, and the layered dynamics of Indian culture versus universal trauma. She’s rewriting what it means to be a ā€œstrong female leadā€ā€”showing us flawed, real, deeply human women who still get to rise.

šŸ’¬ Whether you’ve lived it, witnessed it, or want to understand it better—this conversation will move you. Because this story isn’t just hers—it’s all of ours.

šŸ‘Š So let’s talk about it.
šŸŽ¤ What does reclaiming power mean to you?
