On Feb. 6, the director, local filmmaker Laura Waters Hinson, is inviting Washington to discover the true story of a daring young woman at a free screening hosted by the National Gallery of Art.

Featuring the voices of Dockery and Davies, Many Beautiful Things takes viewers on the journey of a prodigious, self-taught young female artist who finds herself torn between two desires—to strengthen her flourishing artistic talents or pursue a higher calling to serve marginalized women and children in North Africa.
Through dazzling animation and cinematography featuring original works by Trotter, the film awakens viewers to question the limits of sacrifice and the true meaning of success. Trotter’s history is shared through the eyes of Miriam Rockness, a self-made scholar in her early 70s who has become the world’s leading expert on the artist-turned-missionary after nearly 30 years of research.
The film premieres on Feb. 6 at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, with theatrical screenings taking place around the country Feb. 7 – 14. Many Beautiful Things will be available to download and on DVD on International Women’s Day: March 8.
To learn more about the film or screenings around the country, visit ManyBeautifulThings.com.
