Rebecca Parrish is a documentary director, cinematographer and editor. Her film Radical Grace recently premiered in summer 2015 garnering audience awards (Hot Docs Audience Favorite and AFI Docs Best of Fest). RogerEbert.com called the film “an exhilarating portrait of the ‘Nuns on the Bus’ that easily ranks among the year’s best films," writing "Radical Grace moved me to tears with its portrayal of good people putting their beliefs into action in ways that transcend all ideological boundaries." Rebecca makes impact videos for nonprofit organizations through her company, Interchange Productions. In 2012 she produced and directed the interactive web documentary and engagement campaign, Protect Our Defenders, telling the stories of military sexual assault survivors as part of an advocacy campaign to reform the military justice system. The project won the YouTube DoGooder nonprofit video award and the Salsa Labs 2012 Hot Tamale Award for outstanding campaign organizing.
