Send us a textThis is a film that makes us proud to be from the Bay! Earth Mama follows a pregnant young single mother of two who embraces her Bay Area community as she determines the fate of her family.Director Savanah Leaf sits down with us to explain how this film was born from her short film The Heart Still Hums, the meaning of the title, and how writing the screenplay was a form of therapy. We were also joined by Bay Area Hip Hop artist Tia Nomore who shares why she decided to try her hand at acting, how this role spoke to her real life experiences as a new mom, and what it was like to take acting cues from Erika Alexander. They then share what makes the locations in the film so special, the healing power of nature, and how they hope this film will spark a greater conversation about the problems within the system, and the realities of motherhood.Earth Mama opens in SF at the Roxie Theater on July 7th, and nationwide on July 28th.
