Using poetry, interviews with psychologists and survivors, and corporeal imagery, Broca is an experimental documentary hybrid that explores how the mind-body connection is altered after trauma.

Our project is an experimental documentary hybrid that offers a platform for survivors to tell their stories both verbally and non-verbally.
