Movies That Molded Our Lives

Daughters of the Dust: This movie about Gullah women preparing to migrate north resonates with me on many levels ... Holding onto the past while making way for the future. How ancestors play into our daily lives after they're long gone. Violence. The importance of family. The importance of women. I saw this for the first time shortly after I moved to the west coast and felt very alone. It didn't necessarily help me nor guide me, but it certainly made an impact on me and how I felt about my family at an important time in my life. I try to watch it every 5-10 years.
