Elisa Paloschi

President, Eyesfull
Elisa Paloschi is a documentary filmmaker, impact producer and president of Eyesfull, a Toronto based independent production company dedicated to telling real stories that reflect the diversity of the human voice. Her most recent film Driving with Selvi, is a documentary about a former child bride who became Karnataka’s first female taxi driver. 
The film premiered in 2015 at Raindance Film Festival in London. Since then it has appeared at more than 50 festivals around the world, winning accolades including Best Documentary awards from Atlanta International Film Festival and Toronto Reel Asian Film Festival, and was selected as a Top 10 Audience Favorites at the International Documentary Festival Amsterdam.
Elisa is currently working on Save Her A Seat, the film’s multi-phase social impact and audience engagement campaign. Launching in 2017, the film will screen in communities across India. The aim is to leverage the power of Selvi’s story as a catalyst for social change, by opening dialogue and shifting attitudes about child, early and forced marriage. (www.saveheraseat.com).
