“Eudora” is the newest documentary from Amy and Anthony Thaxton, and Robert St. John. Renowned short story writer Eudora Welty is explored through intimate and charming interviews, both with Eudora herself and with family and friends. Seen through the backdrop of Jackson, Mississippi, Eudora is a revealing portrait of adventure, daring, humor and love as we get to know a writer we only thought we knew.

Once called the “Patron Saint of Writers,” the film attempts to present the real Eudora Welty drawing heavily from the literary and photographic collection in the Mississippi Department of Archives and History, the film archives of Mississippi Public Broadcasting, and the Eudora Welty LLC materials.
