Just like the live show, Girl of the Holler is a one woman memoir, storytelling FILM about growing up in small time Appalachia with mental health issues and her relationship with her moonshiner father.

Funny and Poignant, Girl of the Holler runs about 1 hour and is now available to be booked by your club or organization.
