Baumed
“Oh, Auntie Em, there’s no place like home!”
So what happens the following day? Or the following week—the next month? PTSD happens, of course, amid the shambles of the Great Depression where a malignant cast of opportunists are more than happy to exploit a little Kansas farmgirl and her implausible story about Oz.
In life, there are many happy endings, but this isn’t one of them.
Taking cues from the devastation of Dust Bowl Kansas during the Great Depression, 'Baumed' takes an honest look at the realities that Dorothy Gale would have faced in the weeks after she returned from Oz—delivered first-person through the humor and feminist grit of Dorothy herself.
