TeaTime Pictures Crew: Johnson serves as the voice of Shere Hite in the documentary and executive produces alongside her TeaTime Pictures producing partner, Ro Donnelly.
At one point during the photo festival, Johnson met up with his producing partner at TeaTime Pictures, Ro Donnelly, who showed off his fashion sense in a blue jean patterned shirt and pants combo.
The former Netflix development executive also wore a burgundy furry beanie over her long dark locks that flowed past her shoulders.
Moments later, the documentary’s director, Nicole Newnham, joined Johnson on the red carpet.
The Oscar-nominated director of Crip Camp (2020) struck a few poses dressed in black leather pants and matching boots and a sweater over a white shirt that might hang a few inches.

Doc’s Crew: Executive Producers Aaron Saidman, Elizabeth Fischer, Liz Cole, Eli Holzman, and Noah Oppenheim also shared a moment in the spotlight ahead of the screening.
“The opportunity to come on board to not only be the voice, but also to support and amplify the impressive work and message of the formidable Shere Hite was a no-brainer,” Johnson said in a statement about the film.
She added: “We couldn’t think of a better time to tell her story.”
Hite, who passed away at the age of 77 in 2020, spent the last decades of his life living in Europe, after coming under relentless attack from conservatives in the US. He opened a dialogue in popular culture around to the pleasure of the woman.’
During that time, in the wake of each subsequent blockbuster, Hite also engaged in explicit discussions of sexuality, while suffering backlash from his controversial findings.

Dakota’s outing comes after he made a joke about the Armie Hammer cannibalism scandal while speaking at a dinner to kick off the Sundance Film Festival in Park City, Utah.
The actress spoke at the A Taste of Sundance dinner at The Basin Recreation Fieldhouse and presented the Luca Guadagnino Institute Sundance International Icon Award, after working with him on such films as A Bigger Splash and Suspiria.
Johnson joked that the acclaimed director had tried to cast her as the peach in the acclaimed film Call Me by Your Name.
In the film, the character played by Timothee Chalamet performed a sexual act on a peach, after which Hammer’s character ate it.
“Luca had asked me to play the part of the peach, but our schedules conflicted. Thank goodness, because then it would have been another woman Armie Hammer tried to eat!”
