IDA Documentary Screening Series presents ‘Coded Bias’

The International Documentary Association (IDA) is bringing together both films and their creators to industry insiders and film enthusiasts from October to January. This year’s Screening Series takes place online and is accessible from anywhere in the world. Films are available on demand for IDA members exclusively. Post-film conversation live streams with filmmakers and subjects are open to the public for FREE.

CODED BIAS explores the fallout of mit media lab researcher Joy Buolamwini’s startling discovery that facial recognition does not see dark-skinned faces accurately, and her journey to push for the first-ever legislation in the U.S. to govern against bias in the algorithms that impact us all.

Join Director Director/Producer Shalini Kantayya and film subject Dr. Safiya Umoja Noble for a digital conversation moderated by Lorraine Ali of LA Times. Closed-captioned and ASL interpreted.
