Rene Saheb: "Stories, Transformed"

Rene Saheb keeps her garden well-watered. Her canvases and sculptures aren't wet to the touch, but they look like they could be. Drippings run down the surface of her acrylic paintings in bunches.

Her colors, too, have the softness, transparency, and blurred quality of flower petals left to soak in a bowl overnight. She gives us undulations, folds, and rich thickness. A Rene Saheb scene always feels a bit like a glade right after a rainstorm: everything ripe and effulgent, with shadows in the mist, and growth happening so fast you could swear it's happening right before your eyes.

At its heart, this is a film about one woman, wrongfully imprisoned. But as you watch it unfold, you realize it’s also about so much more: a broken immigration system, the erasure of Indigenous voices, and the extraordinary strength of family and community.
