THE MOTHERGROUND

Directors:  Ariande Grace

Trina Morago

Runtime 0:33:06

A mother stuck in traffic while her daughter scrolls social media like an automaton escapes into her own mind. She fantasizes about a long line of mothers floating down a river of time. They emerge, resolved to find the strength of their original power as creators. A re-telling of the Eve myth unfolds, where women are seen not as originators of sin but of creation. Coming in from the ocean of herstory, these women find their magic and momentum through connection with nature and each other. They find a path toward healing in a burned down and logged forest, slated for further destruction. They then dance together to move through centuries of disconnection, reunited and re-purposed toward planet protection.
