A heart-warming and unconventional take on where we live, and the parts of ourselves we donate to make it home.	3F, 1M Emma James is a mother of two young children who is trying to reenter the workforce.

5W Daisy Jones & the Six meets Waiting for Guffman in this kaleidoscopic retrospective of a new mom who accidentally starts a cult. #notacult is a poignant portrait of a woman in crisis on a comedic journey to reinvent herself, as well as a heartwarming tale of the bizarre lengths women will travel to save each other.	12F What do A Christmas Carol, The Wizard of Oz and Dracula have in common?

3W It's hard to be a woman in the 1600s; It's hard to be a woman in the 1950s.
