FALL 2026:
A SECOND LOOK
WITH DIAHNNA NICOLE BAXTER
2026-2027 PUBLIC PROGRAM SERIES
FALL 2026
LOS ANGELES
limited seating
In this special screening and somatic-informed conversation about Black and Brown mother-daughter relationships, Emmy-winning storyteller & somatic priestess Diahnna Nicole Baxter takes a bold second look at the personal and cultural relevance of her 2019 experimental short film Epigenetics — a story about a Daughter, prone to depression, who learns a family secret and struggles to survive its trauma, only to realize its poisonous pattern has been carried down through generations when she turns to her Mother for consolation. If you’re ready to make space for healing conversation, transformational storytelling, or the process of first-time short filmmaking, this intimate pure creative gold experience is for you.
ARTIST NOTE:
“Black and brown women — what happens when we are the holders of secrets? What does rupture do to our bodies? How do we repair when the family unit would rather deny...recognizing how these real stories live in the body and how we have the power and agency to reclaim and close the loop of the cycle?”
