Three women, three dreams, whose will come true? Join us for a film screening and Artist Talk-Back after the show.
ABOUT THE FILM
I challenged three women of color to remember and try to revive the dreams they put on the “back burner” to raise children, support the dreams and passions of their partners, bosses, everyone but their dreams and long held passions. I filmed them for 9 months, the length of a pregnancy, through their challenges and triumphs.
