FILM INFO

After years of painting in solitude, Amanda steps out of the shadows, using her bold abstract paintings to confront a long-buried past. As she prepares for her first retrospective and gains national attention, she faces the raw vulnerability of turning personal pain into public expression. This intimate documentary follows her journey to reclaim her voice, asking whether art can truly heal—and if telling the truth can transform silence into justice.
