Lucy Rose Shaftain-Fenner
Lucy has a Degree in Digital Film Production from the University of Suffolk and a UAL Art Foundation Diploma, for which she practiced documentary filmmaking, earning her a Distinction and a Commendation in the Design Museum Student Awards. Her work often includes themes such as lived experiences, LGBTQIA+ rights and activism, empowerment, intersectional identities, queerness, neurodivergence and mental health. She has produced two documentary films about her transition; a feature film, Pronouns in Bio (2022) and a short film, A Tight, Warm Hug (2024). Both works have been screened at film festivals throughout the UK and United States, including at Norwich University of the Arts for Norwich Queer Fest, at TRANSlations Transgender Film Festival in Seattle and at Out on Film in Atlanta. A Tight, Warm Hug was featured in Queer Youth Art Collective's group show, ‘Dream This Silly’ at Queer Circle in London from October to December 2024 and was screened in October 2024 as part of Dreamy Place’s Night Watch Queer Film Trail in Brighton. Lucy is a keen activist for transgender rights; she has written for Metro’s ‘Pride and Joy’ column and Mermaids Gender for Transgender Awareness Week. Lucy has also been featured in Mermaids ‘#MyPrideFamily’ documentary featuring a range of trans and non-binary young people talking about their lived experiences. Lucy also appears in the Trans Matters Worldwide documentary ‘Dear Wes… Part 1: The Pledge’, which directly addresses UK Health Secretary Wes Streeting, who has allowed puberty blockers to be banned for use by trans young people through the NHS.
