New film competition aims to challenge 'offensive' stereotypes in movies

A new national film competition has launched aimed at challenging “offensive” movie stereotypes – with the film entries all developed based on public Tweets.

The M&M’s #FilmsYouWantToSee campaign was created to champion a sense of belonging for all in the arts and entertainment space, and participants were tasked with creating a film concept based on a post they had read on Twitter.
