Who She Is

“Who She Is” tells the story of four individual women caught in the Missing and Murdered Indigenous Women (MMIW) epidemic. By bringing these missing women to life on screen, through animation and first-person storytelling, the documentary aims to humanize the people behind the statistics. Audiences will learn each woman’s loves and losses and will come to know their story. Through these women, the documentary shines a light on the wider MMIW epidemic and gendered violence in Wyoming and beyond.

Post-film Q&A with directors Jordan Dresser (Northern Arapaho) and Sophie Barksdale, film participant Lucie Washakie (Eastern Shoshone) and Hope Browning, Restoring Ancestral Winds Training and Education Specialist. The panel will be followed by small group community conversations facilitated by Mountain Mediation. Refreshments will be served for the small group discussion participants after the film.

Closed Captions are available for the film and ASL interpretation will be provided for the post-film discussions upon request. Please contact director@parkcityfilm.org by October 2nd with ADA accommodation requests.
