Jeannette

In the aftermath of Orlando’s Pulse nightclub mass shooting, Jeannette seeks support and healing through her community while she continues to coach fellow survivors at the gym. As her life calms, Hurricane María hits Puerto Rico, and Jeannette is thrown back into crisis mode. 

Skirting sensationalism to focus on the tenderness of healing, this portrait of competitive bodybuilder and lesbian single mother Jeannette unfolds as an intimate story of balancing the relentlessness of daily existence with the realities of living through trauma. Jeannette is an unforgettable window into one woman’s life – her strength and vulnerability – and a film about resilience that allows an audience to move past the headlines and ask: in the wake of tragedy, how do we move toward wholeness?
