In the Foreground: THE WATERMELON WOMAN (1996) Cheryl Dunye’s The Watermelon Woman follows a young Black lesbian filmmaker uncovering the erased story of a 1940s actress known only as “The Watermelon Woman.” The first feature directed by a Black lesbian—historic and funny.

🔲 IN THE FOREGROUND 🔲 “What if the entire cast of a horror movie were Black?” Born from Dewayne Perkins’ sketch, The Blackening (2023) turns the slasher genre inside out. At its heart: a sharp-tongued, quick-thinking, queer voice redefining who gets to make it out alive.

We spoke with the creators of The Mark of Lilith — a 1986 Black lesbian vampire film that shaped horror. 🩸⚰️ Filmmakers Bruna Fionda, Polly Gladwin & Zach Mack-Nataf reflect on its legacy nearly 40 years later. Watch on Foreground's YouTube →
