SCREENING: INTENTION WITH BECCA BEGNAUD
Event description
The documentary film “Intention “, co-directed and co-produced by Syd Horn and Olivia Perillo, will be shown at NUNU Arts & Culture Collective at 7pm Saturday, May 4.
“Intention” follows the stories of eleven women who encompass the profound gradient of cultural heritage in Southwest Louisiana. Contextualizing language, music, food, art, and traditional faith healing, these Cajun, Creole, and Chitimacha preservationists inspire pursuits of passion in practice that give light to an untold cultural narrative.
Following the film, Becca Begnaud, who has a degree in anthropology and over 30 years of experience in the healing arts, will facilitate an interactive bilingual (French-English) discussion on healing.
