https://calendar.pitt.edu/event/in_good_hands_screening_panel_1829 #InGoodHandsIn Good Hands is a short film about Dr. Diana Asante, a pediatric emergency physician dealing with the challenges of the last patients of her shift, patients from very different worlds: a white boy who has never seen a Black female doctor and an African American teenager arrested by an unsympathetic officer and facing possibly dire medical issues.
Based on the memoir of Dr. Sylvia Owusu-Ansah, the script was written by former Pitt student Yasmine Crawley and produced as part of the PITTch Storytelling Initiative under the direction of Carl Kurlander, founding producer of C4C: The Pittsburgh Lens.
This community teaching film was made with the participation of a diverse group of over three dozen mentoring film professionals, Pitt students, and community members.
This special screening event will include a panel discussion, with participants TBD.
Refreshments will be provided.
