Monica Cheema

Monica Cheema (she/her) is an experimental filmmaker based on Katzie, Semiahmoo, and Kwantlen lands. Her work attempts to draw interdisciplinary connections between film, arts education, urban planning, community research and organizing. Her filmmaking practice currently explores absences in labor history, archives, and memory. Monica is most excited by films that stretch beyond the limitations of genre– often threading fiction and non-fiction to explore the surreal.
