Also, stick around to explore a vibrant haiku booth for some creative self-expression, and connect with others at our welcoming registration check-in area. There will be an ASL interpreter on hand to ensure it’s an inclusive experience. Don’t miss out on this celebration of community and creativity!
- About the film:
"Confidence" explores the courageous stories of several local individuals, sharing their inner struggles and introspective reflections. This heartfelt documentary short aims to demonstrate our commonalities amidst our differences. In today’s world, where divisions often overshadow shared humanity, especially in the face of another presidential election, empathy is often overlooked, yet ironically, it remains essential in creating a bridge of understanding and unified action across communities. The film is a great way to engage the community in deeper conversations about oneness and the depths of people beyond title, status and ego.
- Optional Community Activity- Bring a haiku or create one there!
If you'd like to take a creative stab in the dark, you can contribute to the haiku booth that will be present at both premieres! All you'll need to do is write a haiku following a 5,7,5 syllable pattern and submit it. You can choose to stay anonymous or add your name for a chance to be featured in my upcoming haiku book! Detailed instructions will be provided at the booth! I can't wait to see your beautiful creations!
