Jun 1 This Feels So Real - Interview with writer, actor, and filmmaker Melanee Murray-Hunt

Time to watch: 9 minute video

Welcome to Arts Commons Presents: This Feels So Real

Inspired by the public art piece of the same name, This Feels So Real video series asks artists to turn their creative eye and ability towards this new world we live in and distill the big ideas and problems we’re now facing into something human-sized and understandable.

Melanee Murray-Hunt is a writer, actor, filmmaker, and curator who doesn’t shy away from big questions and big problems. Her latest projects – Our Canada Our Story and Unganisha – both tackled racism in its many forms. In this brief conversation, Melanee considers how self-isolation could help us build collective empathy and why she’s currently obsessed with mystery novels.
