American actress, producer and recording artist, Tamela D'Amico joins presenter Aiysha Jebali for another insightful episode of the Film Forums Podcast.

This eye-opening film follows a neurologist (played by Tamela D'Amico) as she gives up everything to study music therapy in India. D'Amico's character helps the differently abled come together through music and alters their, and her own, perception of what it means to be "disabled".

'What happens when unresolved trauma comes to the surface?' This is one of the central questions that motivated the development and creation of If Not Now, When? (2019) a directorial debut from Tamara Bass and Meagan Good. Here, at the Film Forums Podcast - actor, writer and producer Tamara Bass talks to fellow filmmaker, presenter Aiysha Jebali about breaking barriers for women of colour through powerful storytelling and resisting stereotypes.

That determination to tell this story her way has led to an authentic, well-crafted and beautifully produced movie about love, forgiveness and the incredible bond between women.
