Brava, brava, brava to local filmmaker, humanitarian, and educator, Teresa Savel.
The Dec. 1 premier showing of her film Palomita (its name translates to “little dove”) at the Bellows Falls Opera House was a life-altering and -affirming experience.
This documentary jewel enabled viewers to connect our local concerns for child care and women's care directly to a small village in Peru dealing with the same issues.
The film opens at the Kurn Hattin Homes for Children in Westminster, where a girl receives a cloth doll as a prize in a school drawing. We then journey to the small village of Q'ewar in Peru, where the doll was one of hundreds handmade by 47 poor village women to provide employment for them and schooling for their children.
