Movies on a Big Screen presents the 2007-08 Media That Matters Short Film Festival

We previously brought this annual compilation of socially conscious short films to Sacramento for the first time. Now, we are presenting the newest festival and this year's is even better than last! All are made by independent filmmakers, many of them youths. Included are short films dealing with waste collection and recycling in Cairo, the Narragansett's fight for sovereignty in Rhode Island, the massacre at Murambi, rescued animals and veganism, weapons in space, vigilantism on the US/Mexico border, the trailblazing students who over 20 years ago fought to make Martin Luther King's birthday a national holiday, and so much more. Moving, engaging and essential viewing. And this year, we are screening this over two nights to make it easier for folks to catch it.

Seating is mostly on folding chairs - feel free to bring a pillow or cushion, or even your own chair! Digital projection on to a large screen.

Movies on a Big Screen presents regular Friday evening film screenings (and occasionally, other nights, too)!
