By Global Peace and Social Justice and the Centre for Peace Studies
Free Panel
Overview
An artist talk with Peabody Award-winning Canadian filmmaker Tiffany Hsiung in conversation with Dr. Sarah Olutola.
Captured over the course of 14 years, across two continents, “Sing Me a Lullaby” is a short film about recovering familial history, healing inherited pain and understanding that love comes in many forms. This event offers an opportunity to speak with Tiffany about the film itself, as well as broader topics the film invites us to reflect upon including the complexities of trauma, kinship and identities in transnational contexts.
