Shorts Program: With These Hands

Post-screening discussion with filmmakers, moderated by Narges Bajoghli, Assistant Professor at the School of Advanced International Studies, Johns Hopkins University.

A quilting group in a men’s maximum-security prison, a school for canine massage, and a photographer who captures daily moments of beauty for her friend battling leukemia—these stories, among others, illuminate the profound power in the simple act of creation, by using one’s hands to transcend life’s challenges.
