Overview
Storytelling is vital to humanity's culture. Everyone of us has a story, we have story history before us and story future beyond us. We're all telling stories, our own, or decoding someone else's story. Filmmaker Alex Browning will be discussing the importance of finding who you are as a storyteller with Professor Ijeoma Uchegbu, after a screening of Daylight Rules, a Sci-Fi drama short film starring T'Nia Miller (soon to be starring in Marvel’s limited series Visionquest) and David Ajala (Star Trek: Discovery).
