Hearthside Salons with PageCraftWriting
Society & Culture
Born in Kenya, Peres Owino is a storyteller of two cultures. From a script she co-wrote being produced by Taraji P Henson and being nominated for an NAACP image award to her International Screenwriting Association Fast Track Fellowship for another script, Peres’ work focuses powerfully on the experience of the African Diaspora. She’s proven she’s an artist with something to say and the means to say it. We’ll talk about what inspires her and what she’s saying next.
Peres and I talk about Wanjiru Njendu's film, Boxed, in which she acts.
Her film Bound
