🥳Here at Parable Towers we’re wishing Co-founder Anthony a very Happy (milestone 😉) Birthday! 🎉
Anthony has dedicated 7 years building We Are Parable and I can’t believe it’s gone so quickly! His work ethic, passion and drive is a true testament to the business you see here today.
🎉
It’s easy to forget our entrepreneurial journey as we’re always striving for future goals. So I thought I’d take today to share a very small selection of photos in celebration.
🎉
Thank you Ant for being a great husband, father, co-pilot and business partner!

Yesterday, Anthony was invited to give a lecture at the @nftsfilmtv about how we’ve managed to pivot during a pandemic. What a great session, with insightful questions and engaging debate from the students. Thank you to Debbie and Jemma at the school for such a great opportunity- definitely a highlight of the year, no question.

To celebrate the release of #missjuneteenth we ask

To celebrate the release of #missjuneteenth we asked Carina and Natalie from @dopeblackmums to speak with @thebritishblacklist about some of the themes of the film...and a lot more on raising daughters, juggling careers and challenging the trope of the “strong Black woman.” Definitely one not to miss...link is in the bio, and Miss Juneteenth is available online and in cinemas from today!

As part of the Film Studio, we spoke with Iyare Igiehon (@1yarei ), the recently appointed Culture Diversity Partner at the @bbc who tells us about his career to date - working in music, switching gears to film, creating @soulfilmuk and why, if you build it, they will come. He’s just one of our guests on The Film Studio, where we speak with experts who have careers that you might not associate with the film industry. Go to our YouTube page at 7pm to hear the conversation in full- link in bio!

One night, five amazing films. As part of our work with @barbicancentre we curated a series of shorts (called “Raising Voices”) for #leytonstonelovesfilm in a park in East London. What an amazing experience! Thank you to the team at LLF (Wilna, Elle), @stowfilmlounge for the tech support and our incredible filmmakers who allowed us to show their work:
