Jenna Hanchard's debut film stars Black girl grief, liberation, and herself

from Seattle Now · host KUOW News and Information

As a new mom, juggling new identities, Jenna Hanchard began to wonder, “how do I come home to myself?” That question became a creative spark that eventually led to her new film, "To Dress a Wound." Hanchard spoke with KUOW's Jeannie Yandel about how her process began after the birth of her second child...with writing poetry. You can see Jenna Hanchard’s film, "To Dress a Wound," at Northwest Film Forum on Capitol Hill September 23 and 26. It premieres with the Local Sightings Film Festival, which features films and filmmakers from the Pacific Northwest. Jenna will be at the September 23 screening for a Q&A.  Jenna Hanchard To Dress a Wound Devyn Pedrano-Snow Dany Srey-Snow Studio 7117 Jasira Andrus Andy Park  4 Culture  Northwest Film Forum Local Sightings Film Festival  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
