Village Keeper, a film that unknowingly helps you heal

  • Summary

  • Stopping by the So She Slays studio is trailblazing filmmaker Karen Chapman, whose bold and impactful storytelling is shaking up the film industry with her new film Village Keeper. A film that The Hollywood Reporter has deemed a "hidden gem" and is an official selection for the Toronto International Film Festival.

    Born into a Guyanese family, Karen's creative problem-solving skills were nurtured from the start, and her fearless approach to tackling real issues has earned her major accolades—including the International Hollywood Foreign Press Residency Award at the Golden Globes!

    Village Keeper is based on her short film Measure. This powerful drama touches on the challenging but important topics of generational trauma and domestic violence, bringing raw realism to the big screen. Starring an incredible cast, including Olunike Adeliyi and Zahra Bentham, Village Keeper goes beyond entertainment—it’s a mirror reflecting the complexities of family, survival, and healing.
