Another packed house for Sueños Binacionales on Tuesday. A big thanks to all of those from the Mixtec community who came out to see a film full of compelling stories of others in their community!
Looks like our friends from Voice of San Diego were in attendance incognito, but I was thrilled to see their article today! Two pieces of good news in there - first, that Bayside's beloved lunch program for seniors has been saved - and secondly, fans of all ages attended the Mixtec screening. I noticed the same phenomenon; as did Lee Ann Kim, our illustrious Executive Director. The thing that tickles me most is that even our incognito columnist seems amused by the toddlers running about. Just moments into the film everyone settled down, and moments after the end the toddling began again. It was a true "community center" feeling, and I was especially happy that viewers of all ages were able (and willing) to enjoy our film.
For those interested in making a film about their community, our classes start soon - contact Phil@sdaff.org to sign up now!
It was an awesome screening. I loved how there were so many children hanging around. Now this is what you call GRASS ROOTS!
