About the Filmmakers
Lokchi Lam is a Toronto resident and emerging doc-maker who loves to chew on paradigmatic ideas about power and society through both observational mode and deep-dive systemic and historical research. Their previous independent short works include What Socrates Thought (2017) and A Day in the Life of Everett (2018). In both, Lokchi as director-camera-editor wonders about the stories people tell themselves about the animals they wield power over.

She has been doing prison education work for a decade. She is a writer, educator, and an animal lover. Unmanageable is her first film project.
