A Place for Love, Hunting for Meaning in Grief: Hunt for the Wilderpeople (2016)
Manage episode 384928163 series 3382961
Screen Cares hosts, Sarah & Jennie invite listeners to join them for an emotional conversation about how love can fuel both grief and healing. Jennie uses the movie Hunt for the Wilderpeople (2016) to process the loss of her sixteen-year-old dog, Epona. We discover that there's room for laughter even during the saddest of times, and that movies can make room for conversations that help us find a place for love to go once our loved ones are gone.
