Sarah Polley, RUN TOWARDS THE DANGER: Confrontations with a Body of Memory

"I had to develop a connection with my body that I hadn’t had as much in the past. That's a really exciting turning point for me, that we're friends now." Zibby is joined by director, actress, and writer Sarah Polley to discuss her memoir, Run Towards the Danger, which is a collection of six personal essays about memories and how we construct them. Sarah shares how the title came from a piece of advice her doctor gave her as she was going through treatment to recover from a years-long concussion and why that experience has shifted her entire approach to life. The two also talk about some of the things Sarah's body has had to endure, why she is extremely hesitant to let her daughter get into acting while she's still a child, and the meticulous planning that went into every word of the essay on Sarah's #MeToo experience.
