was nominated for a Peabody award, premiered in 2018 at the Tribeca Film Festival, and has screened at over 40 film festivals worldwide and garnered seven best documentary awards. It streamed in 190 countries on Netflix, PBS, BBC, and now Amazon. She is releasing a Netflix original documentary feature with the Center for Investigative Reporting and Motto Pictures in early 2023, and is currently directing a women-led series for Freeform.
“Much of filmmaking is about inquiry and curiosity, and that’s always been a pull for me,” says Schwartzman about tapping into her life purpose with this career. “Even when I was a kid, I would see people and want to know: What was their home like? Who were they? That sense of a drive for answers is what guides me in my filmmaking.
The greatest challenge Schwartzman faces in her career is “definitely boundaries!” She explains, “When you’re a creative person, you will naturally put all your passion, art, energy and time into something because you absolutely care and because your name is on the final product. So, cheers to passion and collective labor.
