Squirrel Hill Falls (USA, 2019, 20 mins) directed by Hilary Brashear
Squirrel Hill Falls, a "work-in-progress," is a short docu-fiction film about an abandoned park with an identity crisis. Part history of this gated community space and part story of an enchanted park figuring out who they are, this film wrestles with the purpose of ownership and value of protecting natural spaces.
