About this Event

Join KKC and CECA for FairyTales; a fearless docu-series amplifying the voices of unmarried, childless Black women over 35. —voices often left out of some mainstream conversations. Through raw, heartfelt interviews and thought-provoking commentary, the film explores themes of love, identity, fertility, healing, and resilience while examining how societal expectations shape self-worth and relationships. Featuring insights from both women and their male counterparts, Fairytales challenges stereotypes and invites viewers to rethink what fulfillment and femininity truly mean in today’s world.

Enjoy this exclusive screening and post-film panel discussion with filmmakers and thought leaders as we dive deeper into the narratives, nuances, and necessary conversations surrounding this often misunderstood community.
