Come experience and appreciate film at Salina Art Center Cinema through Kanopy. We will have a discussion led by Cinema Manager Brooks Olivier and Librarian Ashley Will afterward. Open to all with a library card but they can also be issued with a valid ID at program and registration is encouraged. Life, Animated: This is the inspirational story of Owen Suskind, a young man who was unable to speak as a child until he and his family discovered a unique way to communicate by immersing themselves in the world of classic Disney animated films. This emotional coming-of-age story follows Owen as he graduates to adulthood and takes his first steps toward independence. Life, Animated evocatively interweaves classic Disney sequences with verite scenes from Owen’s life in order to explore how his identification and empathy for Disney characters gave him a means to understand his feelings and interpret reality. Owen’s story is a moving testament to how stories can serve as a means of persevering through the dark times, leading us all toward the light. This film is rated PG.
