Frameline Film Festival - Pulse Nightclub Survivor Jeannette Feliciano and director Maris Curran of the documentary Jeannette

Send us Fan MailIt's Pride month and we're over here celebrating it by featuring a couple of films that will be screening at this years Frameline Film Festival. In this episode, we speak with the director and the subject of the documentary Jeannette . In June of 2016, 49 lives were tragically taken during a mass shooting on Latin Night at Pulse, a gay nightclub in Orlando, Florida. One of the survivors of that night is Jeannette, a gay single mother struggling to come to terms with a tragedy for which no one will ultimately be held accountable.  In our conversation with Jeannette and Maris, we speak about giving space to heal (physically and mentally), how Maris handled documenting Jeannette's life after surviving such a trauma, how they handled a very intense scene with Jeannette and her mother, Jeannette's community, and more. If you would like to see this film during the Frameline Film Festival, you still have time to grab a ticket for the in person screening or you can stream it at home. At a time where our LGBTQIA community is being attacked in person and online, you can help support their stories by watching these films. Follow Jeannette documentary on IG Follow Maris Curran on IG + Twitter Follow Jeannette Feliciano on IG + Facebook--Thanks for listening and for your support!
