Inspired by a Buddhist ritual to grieve abortions, a Japanese-American woman reevaluates what it means to end her own pregnancy.
Mizuko played as part of Art in Motion during NFFTY 2020, and took home the Audience Award for that screening in addition to the Jury Award for Best Documentary. Tune in to this week’s episode of the NFFTY Podcast to hear co-directors Kira Dane and Katelyn Rebelo discuss the making of this very personal, partially animated documentary short.
