| May 10 Girls Just Want to Have Fun! |
| Gather your friends and get your tickets before it sells out! Enjoy heavy appetizers, signature cocktails, and a collection of these inspiring short documentaries: "Lotte that Silhouette Girl" (Trailer: https://vimeo.com/249195856) Before Walt Disney, there was a trailblazing woman at the vanguard of animation. Discover the story of Lotte Reiniger, animation pioneer and inventor of the multiplane camera, whose passion for her art was tragically thwarted when she was forced to leave Berlin in the early 1930s. "Girl Death Metal Grandma" (Trailer: https://vimeo.com/258913884) A nonagenarian Holocaust survivor reinvents herself with heavy metal music. "The Journey" Experience the impact of film firsthand. What can be communicated in two minutes? Be ready to give pause and reflect. "Holy" A middle age man defies all odds when told he will never run again. He finds a holy awe in the Wasatch mountains and through thoughtful poetic writing, shares what he sees and feels. "Kicking All Odds" The film follows two players of the Palestinian Women's Football Team, one Christian and one Muslim, and highlights the struggles facing many Palestinians in a time of conflict as well as the hardships they face as female athletes in a male-dominated society. "The Illumination" In a remarkable twist of fate, it was the decades-long effort of one blind person that made it possible for another to see. |
