Welcome to the Southern Circuit Tour of Independent Filmmakers!
South Arts and National Endowment for the Arts
Come join us at Christ Church & Carriage House in Hapeville, GA, for the first film of the fall session for 2024/2025 - Lift
Lift - Filmed over 10 years, LIFT shines a spotlight on the invisible story of homelessness in America through the eyes of a group of young homeless and home-insecure ballet dancers in New York City. After performing around the world, Steven Melendez returns to the Bronx shelter where he grew up to give back to his community, offering a New York theatre Ballet workshop to children. His traumatic reaction to the shelter from his childhood sends him on an unexpected journey with three kids to reckon with a past he escaped from through ballet. Directed by David Peterson & produced by Mary Recine.
We will host a reception from 6pm-7pm with refreshments from local Hapeville restaurants and live music. The film showing will begin at 7pm with a filmmaker Q&A session following.
Don't miss out on this unique opportunity to connect with filmmakers and fellow movie lovers. Mark your calendar and get ready for a day of entertainment and creativity at the Southern Circuit of Independent Filmmakers!
