Episode Synopsis "EPISODE #1 – STORIES THAT TURN A DARK WORLD INSIDE OUT"
In this episode I focus on how stories connect us. l introduce the StoryTellers Film Club. Why study storytelling through a film ?! Because -- like in a book club -- the group experience of focusing on one story and sharing your different perspectives, experiences, and knowledge – turns everyone into a valuable sounding board. You become peer teachers to each other and better conversationalists. When as a group we focus on a film – it’s beyond the book club experience ! Because a film is a multi-dimensional story that immerses us and our senses. The film we are studying is the classic 'HAROLD AND MAUDE' (1971). It's a story that reminds us that you only get one life to live, and it’s up to us to find meaning before time runs out.
