City Sports Film Night w/ Theo Ellington
Join us at the 5th annual SF Urban Film Fest (November 11-18, 2018), a week-long film festival that celebrates cities and civic engagement. Our theme this year is “The City That Holds Us”. Professional athletic sports dominate the attention of City Hall and mass media, but often it’s the grass-roots sports programs that provide historically marginalized youth a connection to each other, the larger athletic community and the city as a whole. The “White Elephants” film questions the impact of a waterfront stadium project in Cape Town, South Africa, as the “Futbolistas 4 Life” and the “City Surf Project” films bring Bay Area empowerment stories to life.
