FWD-Doc Member Beatrice Leong Selected for 2026 EFM Toolbox Programme

Beatrice Leong is a Malaysian documentary filmmaker and gender-disability activist who believes in the power of stories to name what others silence. When she was finally diagnosed with autism in adulthood, after a lifetime of psychiatric and medical injustice, she began using storytelling to reclaim what was lost and connect with others who’ve been left out.
