Woods Hole Film Festival review of “Finding Courage:”

"When programming for the Woods Hole Film Festival, we look for films that are interesting, that look at issues from a unique perspective and focus on important, conversational topics. FINDING COURAGE offers a heartbreaking and personal perspective on an issue not many in the US are familiar with. The programming team was incredibly impressed with the depth of the storytelling in the film and believed it was an important story that we are honored to share as part of the festival line up this year."
