How does one combine the expanse of one’s artistic works and their personal journey with breast cancer into their first documentary film?  This is what was on my mind as I spoke with French sculptor, installation artist, anthropologist, cancer survivor and now documentary filmmaker, Prune Nourry.

 

Topics Discussed

  • how Prune Nourry brought her approach to sculpting to doc filmmaking
  • how when she was in the middle of filming another project decided to turn the camera on herself when she was diagnosed with breast cancer
  • how having the camera in her hand helped Prune Nourry to be more proactive with her treatments
  • Nourry’s desire to have her film used as a tool for medical practitioners and breast cancer patients around the world
  • how Prune Nourry decided to make this film much more about the human & personal aspects of breast cancer, rather than the medical aspects
