The Red Vanity Case
January 25, 2024
15m
Overview
The filmmaker's mother recalls her own mother and childhood in the 1960s bouncing between Mexico and California. Her mother's small red vanity case becomes a symbol of her independence as a woman and also of her inaccessibility as a maternal figure. A deeply relatable story about growing up with an unconventional single mother.
