PSA: Last Morning
Her social media feed is filled with frustration and “prayers” for families torn apart by yet another mass shooting as filmmaker Natalie Johns is engaged in the morning ritual of negotiating school attendance with her 412-year-old. Between laughing and arguing with their daughter, the Johns' think deeply about the prospect of waking up without her—deeply enough to feel an inch of what it might be like to lose her—a feeling profound enough inspire her most personal commitment to date as a filmmaker. “Gun violence should not be a normalized part of life in America,” she notes. "I felt it was worth putting my whole heart on the line to deliver this message.” The director invited her long-time collaborator and cinematographer, Bill Kirstein (Mean Girls, Happyend), to capture their family’s experience over several mornings. She wanted to capture her own joy and truth as a parent with view to inspiring action from the deepest love she has known.
