Tonya Mollineau (Mom, Director, Producer) is an award-winning filmmaker known for her powerful storytelling centered on complex female characters and social issues.
Her short film Too Much Love, in collaboration with AIDS Healthcare Foundation, serves as a PSA for HIV awareness. Trayvia, named in honor of Trayvon Martin, is a visceral response to police brutality.
Tainted, highlights a mother’s struggle with PTSD, and P.S. 377, is a compelling call-to-action for gun control to protect children in schools. Currently in development is Mom Conned, a documentary feature that investigates the media’s misleading myths about motherhood.
Mollineau is also the founder of MOM Film Fest, a nonprofit dedicated to supporting mom filmmakers through showcasing their work, financial support, and industry connections. She also started The Moms Network for New York Women in Film & Television (NYWIFT). As a single mother, her mission is to #leavenomombehind. Moms are her passion.
