LETTERS TO AN UNBORN SON

by Emerge Intersex Fund

Letters to an Unborn Son is a documentary film project about the impact of incarceration on a family and how love survived the walls of confinement.

Letters to an Unborn Son is a passion project of mine. I conceived of this project back in 2013 when my mom gave me a packet of letters addressed to me. The letters were from my Dad and he wrote them while he was incarcerated. When I started reading the letters, a flood of memories came back and I wondered what would it mean to respond to his letters as an adult? Responding to his letters brought back suppressed memories and I was able to connect parts of my past that I had all but forgotten. 

This documentary retraces those steps and revisits one of the most profound and perhaps the most devastating parts of my life.

Will you join me on this journey?

When I decided to do this project, I had no idea the journey that I would be on. I knew that there was a story inside of me that needed to come out. By freeing myself, I free those who came before me and those who will come afterward. Giving $5 won't get you free, but is a small but valuable token of support!

In dream meaning, the number ten symbolizes strength perfection and beauty. I am recognizing how much of a perfectionist I am, but working on this project teaches me to let go of perfection and allow myself and others to make mistakes.
