Park City filmmaker Jill Orschel and producer Kirstin Spalding talk about their upcoming documentaries. Orschel discusses "Snowland," a film 12 years in the making that follows Cora Lee Witt, a former FLDS member who created a rich fantasy world as a way to heal from her traumatic past. Spalding shares details about another film, "Over the Hill," which follows women over 40 in Utah’s Women’s Wine Hiking Society as they tackle personal challenges through outdoor adventures. Both filmmakers reflect on the creative process, the role of trust with their subjects, and the community support that has helped bring their projects to life.
