Tiny Movements is a short minute documentary about Jenn Green, a professional modern dancer and mother of two, who discovered four years of video recordings of her husband raping her after drugging her with high doses of Ambien. She and her children escaped and filed an order of protection. Once in a safe space, she danced in her kitchen, filmed it and posted it to social media. This documentary is the story of her creation of Tiny Kitchen Dances Project, healing and ongoing legal battle to protect herself and children all while moving forward to rebuild and thrive in her life.
