PC Films “The Good Stuff” a documentary film about Kindness and the Power of Giving, screens at the Winona Arts Center 228 E 5th St Friday Oct 18th at 7pm. For this film I interviewed several local do-gooders, givers and ordinary angels to ponder the questions "What makes a giver? Is kindness inherent, learned, or instinctual?" Produced by Paper Cat Films in association with Engage Winona's Learned Experience Leaders program. Discussion and complimentary refreshments following the film.

My current project "The Good Stuff" was inspired by a past documentary I produced called "Samaritan". Both projects celebrate KINDNESS!
