Minka Kelly Instagram – Had the most wonderful few days in Savannah at @savfilmfest. It’s one of my favorite weeks of the year that I look forward to spending with my Godmother and all the amazing and powerful women in our annual crew.
I love and cherish the time I get to spend with the students. Thank you for having me and asking such meaningful questions. Every year, just before our panel I get so nervous wondering what I might have to offer and once we’re in the flow I notice how alive I become talking to you. Every time we share space and conversation I walk away reinvigorated and excited to go to work again.
This year I was blown away by a documentary called
Womb. Women Of My Billion.
I laughed and I bawled and then was filled with hope and inspiration. One very inspiring woman @srishtibakshi angry about the well documented Delhi rapes gives up her job in Singapore to return home to India to walk from one end of the country to the other to stop in all the villages along the way to meet as many women as she can to hear their stories and either introduce them to or remind them of their power and the lives they deserve. Her billion women.
The festival this year left me with a sharp reminder of how incredible women are. Especially so when we lift each other up and have each other’s backs. When we allow ourselves to be vulnerable and share each others stories. When our hearts are open enough to give and receive. What a gift.
Thank you 🙏🏼❤️💫 | Posted on 27/Oct/2021 22:14:02
