This month we are showing: The Redemption of Mary Louisa McBroom (2025)
The Redemption of Mary Louisa McBroom is a dramatic documentary, based on a true story. It’s a story of breaking free from generational abuse & childhood trauma. It spans four generations of one family and centers on an art exhibit called, Family Secrets. Mary Louisa McBroom was the grandmother of artist, Steve Head. Steve never knew her as she committed suicide in 1943 at the Oklahoma State Hospital for the Insane, (in Norman, OK), after being a patient there for 9 long years. Her story was never spoken of until, while doing his genealogy, Steve was able to not only learn about her, but obtain the actual medical records of her stay there. Mary was the mother of Steve's father, Alvie. Mary's father was an alcoholic, as was her father-in-law, Phelix. This documentary connects the links in the chain of many generations of abuse and childhood trauma. The film also documents the struggle to break those chains and is intended to offer hope to others.
