As in every year, the United Nations Association Film Festival offers unique stories
that appeal to a wide audience by giving voice to the voiceless. For the first
time ever, in an effort to create a dialogue with future generations and deepen
global understanding, UNAFF is holding screenings in East Palo Alto (Oct. 8 at
Eastside Theater, 2101 Pulgas Avenue). By doing so, the festival is offering youth
who wouldn‚t necessarily be able to, the opportunity to see films that resonate
with issues readily recognized in their communities, to attend roundtable discussions,
and to learn directly from visiting filmmakers how to become involved with documentary
filmmaking as a tool to promote their culture and issues. The festival runs from
October 19-23 at Stanford University. For more information please call 650-724
5544 or visit www.unaff.org
