Snowland - A work in progress screening
Snowland
Directed by Jill Orschel
Not Rated, 90min
Join us for a sneak peek presentation with Park City-based filmmaker and founder of the annual Filmmakers Showcase, Jill Orschel, about her feature film "Snowland."
"Snowland" tells the fascinating story of Cora Lee Witt, a woman who created a fantasy realm to escape her dark past as a child bride in the secretive, polygamous FLDS sect located in the Short Creek community on the border between Hildale, UT, and Colorado City, AZ. C.Ravens Snowland is a magical world full of fairies and castles, which allowed Cora to transport herself away from the trauma and dark memories of her abusive marriage as a second wife and find healing and power in her creativity.
Park City-based filmmaker Jill Orschel will share selections from "Snowland" and pull back the curtain on her creative process. We'll hear about the nine years she spent building a relationship with Cora, uncovering her artistic alter-ego C.Raven, a self-taught craftsperson, painter, costume designer, author, and creator of the Snowland realm, and the work being done to complete the film for a release date later in 2023.
Part of the Made in Utah Film Series.
