DATE CHANGE for Girl Rising film

The organizers have changed the date for this screening to Thursday, April 24.


Location & time is unchanged: 

7:30 PM at southside Works Cinema

 

Apologies for any inconvenience.



Friends, thought I would pass along a note about another local screening of Girl Rising, a narrative documentary about nine girls from nine nations, including Haiti, Peru, Sierra Leone, Ethiopia, Egypt, Afghanistan, Nepal, India and Cambodia.

It is showing at 7:30pm on Thursday, April 10 at the SouthSide Works Cinema. Tickets are $10 purchased through the link below.

I had the opportunity to see it at a screening last month, and found it incredibly moving on multiple levels: as art, as advocacy, and as gorgeously photographed, innovative filmmaking. It is a documentary that gracefully interweaves facts about the ways education can improve girls' lives with dramatic elements that make for a powerful experience.

A young friend is organizing this showing as part of his work with his high school's human rights club.The viewing is tentative until 40 people register to attend via this link: https://gathr.us/screening/7496

 

Even if you can't attend, please pass the word to any/all you know who might be interested. 

 

Thanks! 

Bonnie
