Award-winning filmmaker Rachel Morrison joins a Spotlight Conversation at TheGrill 2024 on Oct. 8 at The DGA Theater. The discussion, moderated by TheWrap’s Awards Executive Editor, Steve Pond, will dive into Morrison’s creative vision and the challenges of modern cinematography, with a focus on her latest project “The Fire Inside,” which marks her directorial feature debut.
Written and produced by Barry Jenkins, the film tells the true story of Claressa ‘T-Rex’ Shields, a boxer from Flint, Michigan who trained to become the first woman in her country’s history to win an Olympic gold medal in the sport, only to realize that not all dreams are created equal and the real fight has only just begun.
