Carol Dysinger is a filmmaker, writer, artist and educator, whose contemporary work offers a counter-narrative to traditional stories of conflict.   She is in the midst of a trilogy on Afghanistan and America post 9/11. Alternating between  fiction and documentary storytelling practices throughout her career she has made a lifelong inquiry into the mechanics of story and the role storytelling plays in what we come to believe is true.
