The Violet
The violet ​in "Amelia Violet Prouse" is not only a representation of Amelia herself but of Violet Halvorson, Amelia's grandmother. As a dedication to her, Amelia has two violets tattooed on her upper arm, one for her and the other for her Grandma Vi.
The violet is symbolic of the love powering all of Prouse's work and is a connection to the friends and family who have helped her to become the filmmaker she is today.
