Mill Valley Film Festival Family Film Line Up

MVFF Family Films

What do Uruguayan teens competing in robotics, a flatulent Dutch piglet, and a queer Canadian tween comic book enthusiast all have in common? They’re just some of the inspiring characters (yes, even that pig!) whose stories we’ll be sharing with you during MVFF45, both in-theater and online. Along with dozens of short films and the latest work by youth filmmakers from many corners of the world, this year’s joyful and eclectic mix of cinematic experiences is a unique opportunity for exploration for audiences of every age. Join us for films, parties, workshops, and much more!

WORKSHOP | IN OUR OWN WORDS: POETRY ON FILM

SUNDAY, OCT. 9 • 4:00 – 5:30PM

MISSION CULTURAL CENTER FOR LATINO ARTS, SAN FRANCISCO | AGES 11-18 • FREE

Inspired by the bold slam poetry and narration of José Eduardo Aguilar, “El Deportee” in the animated documentary Home Is Somewhere Else, this workshop combines the art of the written word and non-fiction film narration. Participants will be able to write and perform poetry that exhibits their identity, experiences, and dreams. Filmmaker in attendance.
