Earth Mother

There's an Earth Mother in every woman. "Earth Mother" is an music short that portrays Rosa Parks, Frida Kahlo, Ameila Earhart and Joan of Arc taking a stand against the societal norms and restrictions of their time. Each of these women is a pioneering force in history and the struggles they overcame cemented their places as feminist icons. Featuring an original song by Fenwick and the Big Loop, "Earth Mother" hopes to encourage others to defy convention and break the mold.
