Love Under Fire: The Story of Bertha and Potter Palmer tells
the epic love story between young socialite Bertha Honoré and Potter
Palmer, a self-made man 20 years her senior, whose passion for one
another and the city they loved inspired the rebirth of Chicago after
The Great Fire that left it in ruins. Because of their efforts, Chicago
rose like a Phoenix from the ashes to become the world class city it is
today.
“Whether it's 1893 or 2013, Bertha Palmer’s story is
timeless, especially as we honor women and their contributions for
Women’s History Month,” said Director and Producer Amelia Estelle Dellos.
This film marks the first completed film for Chicago-based production company Corn Bred Films and was made in partnership with Tribeca Flashpoint Academy, Red Car Chicago, Chicago Filmworkers, and Chicago Recording Company. The film was privately financed with assistance from the International Documentary Association.
