Seeking Mavis Beacon

Women Directed

Dir. Jazmin Jones USA 102 min Not Rated

2024 NEON

One of the most influential Black women in technology is a figment of our collective imagination. Mavis Beacon was invented by the Co-Founder of MySpace to sell the world's most popular typing software, but the real woman she was modeled after disappeared in 1995. Seeking Mavis Beacon poses critical questions regarding anthropomorphization and the consumption of marginalized bodies in the tech industry while reimagining the legacy of a missing historical figure.
