CHICKEN SALAD is a surrealist film exploring grief and the raw and chaotic emotions of heartbreak through dreamlike, thought-provoking visuals. The act of art becomes a vehicle for our subject’s healing; she merges with her creations, blending her artwork into reality. "Chicken Salad" ultimately showcases how art provides a path to expression, acceptance and love in the face of profound loss.
