'If Only Love' with Author Shelley Saywell

My guest today is Shelley Saywell, an award-winning Canadian documentary filmmaker whose work has been seen in more than 40 countries and recognized around the globe. Shelley has won an Emmy for Investigative Journalism, multiple Hot Docs awards, and has been honoured with UNESCO’s Gandhi Medal for promoting a culture of peace. She’s spent decades telling powerful stories about war, human rights, women, and children—often from the front lines. Now, she’s turned the camera inward with her deeply personal new memoir, If Only Love, a story of love, loss, and second chances that began when she was just seventeen at an international school in Japan. The book has already been named a Heather’s Pick, and today we’re talking about the love story behind the lens—and what it means to look back with honesty, courage, and compassion.   http://www.ShelleySaywell.com book http://www.Indigo.ca
