HOMEGROWN: Future Visions

In the wake of widespread incidents of police brutality, advocacy for climate justice, and calls to end gun violence, HOMEGROWN: Future Visions explores how Midwestern filmmakers, culture bearers, and communities are redefining cultural identities through place-based storytelling. The filmmakers received mentorship by Firelight Media, established independent filmmakers, and were paired with a local public media station for additional support.
