An Emotional Justice short film about the weight of it all and the wellness we create.
This short film centres a black woman's journey where breakthrough may feel like breakdown in a world that demands, negates and discards. What does it mean to choose your wellness over the world's weight of expectation of your racialised emotional labour?
