The Athena Film Festival is the premier festival celebrating and showcasing women's leadership in documentaries and feature films as well as in-depth conversations with industry experts. One of their prominent program areas features short films grouped into specific themes that explore and highlight a wide range of issues from climate change to social justice movements. This year’s festival included several themes including Resilience Through Uncertainty, Nothing About Us Without Us, and Tear It Down: Dismantling White Supremacy. While covering the festival this month, I had access to short films from each of these sections and provide reviews to my selections below.

We're only a few days away from The Falon and The Winter Soldier premiering on Disney+. Now seemed like the best time to also drop part two of my brief eseries Everything I Love About Sam Wilson as part of my series  celebrating Captain America  in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Right now, I plan on limiting this continuation to the movies, knowing once the show starts I may fall behind keeping up - though time will tell.  Here's brief run-through in  Captain America: Civil War,  Avengers: Infinity War, and Avengers: Endgame . Hope you enjoy!
