Without Her Movie
a dog's story of escaping domestic violence

It's fitting to break a long streak of silence today on International Women's Day. Why the silence? Well, to be quite honest, it's only ever been me (your humble director) maintaining all of the social media channels for the film. And to be honest, I've needed a long winter of rest and connecting to my community on a more personal level to be able to give my best toward this never-ending cause.
Here are the long-awaited results of what we as a community were able to come together and donate to The Rose House Domestic Violence Shelter during our paw-miere. Together, we helped raise over $2,100 in unrestricted donations that have allowed the shelter to utilize funds that are just as necessary to providing humanity to our local women and pets. Your donations helped make a real impact on real lives here in Ross County π
In recognition of today, I'll leave you with a short poem:
"Women Will"
No matter what doors are slammed in our face,
Women will find a way to pick the lock open.
No matter what merits are stripped away,
Women will rejoice together.
No matter what seats we're not allowed to fill,
Women will stand that much taller.
No matter what size we're told to be,
Women will fill stadiums with their light.
But who will be the first to fight when all looks hopeless?
Women will.

Today may be Election Day, but to me it's a very special day for a different reason:
Happy 12th Birthday Storm π₯Ήπβ€οΈ
I am so thankful for every moment with my soul dog β€οΈ

One of my favorite questions asked during the Q&A was, "I just found out I am in a situation similar to the film. What do I do?"
Calling the National Domestic Violence Hotline at: 800-799-7233 or text BEGIN to 88788 is the best first step any victim of domestic abuse can take to get a specific plan together to help them (and their pets) get out. Everyone's situation is a little bit different, but everyone's situation deserves as much individual care β€οΈ

One of the special moments that happened during the Purple Carpet Event was being awarded special senate recognition for the world premiere of Without Her π It truly speaks volumes that this film transcends beyond our community and makes a political impact.
It's an important piece of my dream to make the world a better place for all victims of domestic abuse π
This special recognition serve as a reminder that at the end of the day, the country is full of amazing hearts that come together for a purpose much larger than ourselves β€οΈ
I'm even more thankful to be presented this special award of recognition by our wonderful state representative, Mark Johnson and Kelli Johnson! π₯°

The entire Without Her team is incredibly thankful to @the_recw for all of their phenomenal support with making the Purple Carpet Event paw-sible! Many people say that audio can make or break a film. I'm honored to have been in the capable hands of the best audio engineers in Ohio in the place where the best audio engineers are born π

"Be wary of the rose colored glasses."
Many victims can't see the signs when they're stuck on the memories of how it all started.
See how it all starts today.
