Our hope is that the Subjects of Desire community facilitation guide will enable diverse girls and young people in Canada to explore these critical issues for themselves and get empowered and equipped as advocates for gender justice.

At Hungry Eyes Media we believe in creating opportunities for audiences to transition from passive viewers to engaged and active beneficiaries of content where they are inspired to feel, learn and do more.

The film can be a beacon of hope for racialized girls.... and a tool for non-racialized girls to have to think about and reflect on the ways they may be perpetuating negative stereotypes about girls and women who identify as Black.
Belinda Longe, Superintendent of EducationTDSB 
The film is informative and empowering: it tackles Black beauty’s historical roots, from the intersectionality of race, class, and power, in smart and compelling ways. I consider it one of the most powerful anti-racist and decolonial teaching tools available to educators and researchers.

Fascinating, educational, and insightful, Subjects of Desire should be seen widely and considered thoughtfully by people of all colors...
Alliance of Women Film Journalists 
“Subjects of Desire is a thought-provoking film that explores how Western beauty standards have shifted to embrace Black women’s aesthetics, but not the Black women who originated those aesthetics. Educational and insightful, Subjects of Desire skillfully exposes the interconnection between racism and beauty standards in America, and deserves wide viewership.”
