The short documentary includes exclusive interviews with prominent figures in the art world, including artists KAWS, Hank Willis Thomas, and Lee Quiñones; Anne Pasternak, director of the Brooklyn Museum; and Sarah Arison, president of the Arison Arts Foundation, among others. They reflect on Parlá's impact, resilience, and artistic legacy. Their insights, alongside Parlá's own reflections, weave together a powerful story about art, survival, and the meaning of home.
