“Irene” is from Ro Myra’s album “Nowhere, Nebraska” and dares to take a hard look at an intense and often overlooked social issue. Practically a short film in its visual narrative structure, “Irene” stars artist Ro Myra as she desperately tries to help her friend Irene, played by Matison Card, through struggles with domestic violence. The resulting lessons learned both lyrically and visually tap into the idea that you have to truly love and respect yourself before you are able to escape the darkest parts of life.
