About this Event

Inthrive Film Festival: Discovering Yourself

Date & Time: October 2, 2026 at 1:00 PM (Eastern Time)

Location: Commons Theater, Virginia Commonwealth University

BEING MICHELLE is the gripping documentary of a deaf woman with autism who survived a justice system that refused to accommodate her, and the unexpected lifeline who changed her trajectory: Kim, a blind volunteer life coach she met on the inside.

Now free, these two extraordinary women are unraveling Michelle’s past through her deeply personal artwork and their unbreakable bond. More than a story of survival, it is a testament to resilience, healing, and the profound power of finally being heard.

🎬 Witness her unforgettable journey. Join us for BEING MICHELLE at the Inthrive Film Festival opening weekend in Richmond, VA, on October 2, 2026 at 1:00 PM at VCU's Commons Theater.

Followed by a conversation about disabilities and the criminal legal system.

*Film is captioned and ASL interpretation will be provided for discussion
