8m 32s
PORTALS explores the body, nature, and heart as doorways into deeper dimensions of self and our inherent interrelatedness.

PORTALS traces two journeys from disconnection toward reconnection, inviting viewers to question the boundaries of self and explore the possibility that we are not separate from one another, from nature, or from the larger web of life.
