Writing and singing the unvarnished truth about one’s buried secret life experiences is more common today than when Dory Previn wrote brilliant, disturbing, and darkly funny songs in the 1970s. Previn began as an Academy Award nominated lyricist for Hollywood musicals with songs for Frank Sinatra, Judy Garland & Dionne Warwick before a tabloid scandal and public breakdown led to her re-emergence as a cult artist in the Laurel Canyon scene. The film taps archives for a story in Previn’s voice. J. Smith-Cameron (SUCCESSION) reads the voices in Dory’s head from her journals.
A panel discussion with Co-Director Julia Greenberg, Animator Emily Hubley, and Jessie Roth, the Director of the Institute for the Development of Human Arts (IDHA), follows the screening. The panel will be moderated by Karin Jervert (artist and Mad Pride activist). The panel will discuss how artists can respectfully approach the representation of those who experience voices and visions in ways that encourage empowerment over discrimination. Done with curiosity and compassion for the diversity of the human mind, these works of art can serve to increase understanding and healing as well as community engagement and social justice in health.
