The Sundance Institute has named Caroline Monnet as the recipient of the 2023 Merata Mita Fellowship. The annual fellowship is in honor of the late Māori filmmaker Merata Mita(1942-2010) created for Indigenous women-identified artists poised to direct their first feature film.
Monnet (Anishinaabe/French) was recognized at the Native Forum Celebration at The Park in Park City, Utah during this year’s Sundance Film Festival.
Sundance Institute Indigenous Program Director Adam Piron (Kiowa and Mohawk) also announced the five 2022 Native Lab Fellows, three 2022 Full Circle Fellowship Fellows, and acknowledged the eleven Indigenous-made projects from around the world that are premiering at this year’s Sundance.
Monnet is a multidisciplinary artist from Outaouais, Quebec. She studied Sociology and Communication at the University of Ottawa (CA) and the University of Granada (ES) before pursuing a career in visual arts and film.
