Punam Kumar Gill
~ Capturing Our Stories
Punam Kumar Gill made a film about her Father, a modern-day monk. He past away unexpectedly after the film was made, Punam was devastated and at the time she was pregnant. Knowing her Son would never have a chance to meet his Grandfather, she was glad for the short film which captured his voice, facial expressions, and gestures so she could show them to her son when he was old enough. How was she able to accomplish what we all yearn to do - capture our parents' stories before it's too late?
