An intimate, joyful, haunting portrait of the iconic Cuban-American dramatist María Irene Fornés that shows art and friendship enduring in the face of forgetting. This excerpt, taken from the rough cut, introduces you to Fornés and her visionary creative process.
María Irene Fornés (born May 14, 1930) is a Cuban-American avant-garde playwright and director who was a leading figure of the Off-Off-Broadway movement in the 1960s. She lives in New York City.
*Followed by a brief discussion with Michelle Memran.
