THE COUCH OF TRUTH with AFP - GRIEF: AND IT'S GOING TO HURT

This is the third episode in a five-part series. On March 22, 2019, the afternoon of her "There Will Be No Intermission" solo piano show in Toronto, musician Amanda Palmer invited members of the community to descend into to the basement dressing room of the Queen Elizabeth Theatre, sit on a cozy couch, and share anything they felt like sharing. A story, a heartbreak, a confession....anything. Her old college friend, filmmaker Jenessa Joffe, captured the stories on film and wove them into this 5-episode series: The Couch of Truth. The film was funded by Amanda's patron community, and you can read all about the genesis of the project, read updates about these folks, and see behind-the-scenes photos HERE:   / 54801129   You can see the playlist featuring the full series here:    • THE COUCH OF TRUTH with AFP   Thank you to the patrons whose funding made this project possible, and huge, heartfelt thanks to Gabriel, Amanda, and Nicki for being so open, vulnerable and brave.
