An independent film screening exploring motherhood across body, spirit, and earth. Followed by a brief Q&A with the filmmakers.
About this Event


This curated screening brings together three short films that reflect on motherhood as memory and motion. Through a range of perspectives, these stories consider what it means to carry, to release, and to remember.

Following the screening, join us for a brief conversation with filmmakers. Featured artists will be announced in the coming days.
