But it doesn't stop there! We invite you to a special live stream conversation with some of our visionary directors. Together, we’ll discuss the vital role of storytelling in the age of extremism in U.S. politics and how films can inspire change, amplify marginalized voices, and build a collective vision for a better future.

The story follows Betty Jo-Ann Austin, as the lead. She wakes up trapped in a nightmare, navigating the 1800s, 1920s, and 1950s—eras that represent societal struggles for women. In the end, her mother finds her sleepwalking, her mouth sealed shut, a haunting metaphor for silenced voices. The mother takes the girl’s hand and leads her forward, symbolizing our role in uplifting young girls and forging a brighter, more hopeful future.
