Screening Tool Kit
"Film speaks in
compelling, persuasive and personal ways -
vividly illustrating
the struggles and triumphs that tell the stories of our lives,
reaching to the heart of an issue and touching chords the
written word cannot grasp.
Although educational and grass
roots campaigns are effective means to enact social change,
such efforts rarely use relevant film. In linking independent
film with social change advocates,
we are creating important
new resources and community efforts." - Working Films
