Director/Writer/Producer: Paola di Florio
Producer: Nancy Dickenson

Home of the Brave is about the only white woman murdered in the civil rights movement in America and why we DON’T know who she is. Told through the eyes of her children, the film follows the on-going struggle of an American family to survive the consequences of their mother’s heroism and the mystery behind her killing.

"...a serenely powerful, handcrafted film that navigates into a place Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. once called 'the tangled discords of our nation'..."

"Di Florio has seamlessly woven together the strands of past tragedy and contemporary ramifications into a film that is stingingly personal and universal at the same time...  required viewing by all citizens if we hope not to repeat this awful chapter.”
--HOLLYWOOD REPORTER--

“…a movie of twists and turns that continually surprises and provokes…it should be seen by as many Americans as possible.”
--FOX NEWS--
