He was first and 120\,000 Americans were next. This is her story. \nSynopsis: A couple hours after the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor on December 7th 1941\, Ichiro Kataoka was the first San Francisco Japanese prisoner taken by the FBI from his hotel in Japan Town. Through a series of unfortunate events\, Ichiro would eventually reunite with his family three years later in Topaz\, Utah after President Roosevelt issued Executive Order 9066\, which forced all Japanese residing on the West Coast to relocate to desolate Internment Camps throughout the country. Their only crime was being of Japanese ancestry.  \nDecades later\, though a collection of footage\, the Kataoka family legacy is being told through Ichiro’s daughter\, great grandson\, and relatives of what this family had endured. Although this was a dark time in America’s history\, we find that love and happiness can blossom in the darkest of places. \nDirected & Produced: Myles Matsuno \nWebsite & Trailer: www.mylesmatsuno.com/first-to-go-story-of-the-kataoka-family

SUMMARY:MADAME Film Screening
DESCRIPTION:Join Out on Film and the Consulate General of Switzerland in Atlanta for a Pride month celebration. All ticket holders are invited to a special reception at Apres Diem at 6 pm. \nJoin them in celebrating Pride Month with the screening of MADAME by Stéphane Riethauser! Follow the story of a double self-portrait in which a 90-year-old grandmother and her homosexual grandson confide in each other. With sincerity and humour\, the film deconstructs gender stereotypes in depth and with subversive power\, and traces a family saga from bourgeois society with enchanting archive footage. The film will be shown in French with English subtitles and is part of a collaboration between the Consulate General of Switzerland in Atlanta and Out On Film. Make sure to arrive at 6 PM for a delicious cocktail reception! \nLearn more about the film:\nMADAME takes us on an intimate journey where Caroline\, a flamboyant 90-year-old grandmother and her filmmaker grandson Stéphane explore the development and transmission of gender identity in a patriarchal environment. Promised to a domestic life in the 1920s\, Caroline manages to free herself from the clutches of a forced marriage and becomes a successful businesswoman\, defying the social rules of her time. In parallel\, Stéphane struggles to play the role everyone expects in his Swiss bourgeois family\, until the day he comes out of the closet and sets off on a crusade against homophobia and sexism. A family saga based on private archive footage\, MADAME offers a dialog between this extravagant matriarch and her gay grandson\, challenging the taboos of gender and sexuality.

SUMMARY:Documentary Screening: Lindy Lou\, Juror Number 2
DESCRIPTION:The Consulate General of Belgium in Atlanta is organizing this film screening with support from the Southern Center for Human Rights as part of the marking of the World Day against the Death Penalty\, to shine a light on the death penalty’s heavy consequences for all who are touched by it. \nThe screening will take place at the Franco-German Cultural Center at 233 Peachtree Center Suite 100 in Downtown Atlanta\, from 6:30pm until 9pm on October 11th. Light refreshments will be provided. The film begins at 7 pm\, followed by a Q&A after the film with Lindy Lou Isonhood\, who will be attending the screening in person. \nLimited seats\, first come\, first serve + registration required. Please unregister if no longer attending. \n  \nDocumentary synopsis: \nCommitted to fulfilling her civic duty\, Lindy sat on a jury with 11 other jurors that handed down the death penalty to a Mississippi man convicted in a double homicide. When Bobby Wilcher was executed in 2006\, Lindy had been his only visitor in 15 years. Determined to understand the overwhelming regret that she has been grappling with for years\, Lindy takes off on a road trip across Mississippi to track down and learn more about her fellow jurors tasked with deciding the fate of a man’s life all those years earlier. Lindy\, a conservative\, religious woman from the South\, manages to tackle this oft-politicized topic with humor\, an open mind and sincere curiosity.

SUMMARY:1982: Atlanta movie opening with Director\, Oualid Mouaness

Stay after for a Q&A and meet the director! \nA Cinematic Wonder… 1982 keeps you on the edge of your seat\, heart in your throat from beginning to end.” In his debut feature\, Oualid Mouaness delivers an ode to innocence in which he revisits one of the most cataclysmic moments in Lebanon’s history through the lens of a child and his vibrant imagination. It demonstrates the complexities of love and war and the resilience of the human spirit. 1982 opens at The Plaza Theater on Friday\, October 21 at 8 PM followed by Q&A with the director. \nQuestions? Please email info@alifinstitute.org. \n  \nFilm Synopsis: \n“1982” is a life-affirming coming-of-age tale set at an idyllic school in Lebanon’s mountains on the eve of a looming invasion.

As the invasion encroaches on Beirut\, it upends the day\, threatening the entire country and its cohesion.

SUMMARY:Steffen Thomas: Rock & Chisel Film Premiere on Georgia Public Broadcasting
DESCRIPTION:Steffen Thomas Museum of Art is proud to announce the live airing of the film\, Steffen Thomas: Rock & Chisel\, February 13th at 10:00 p.m. on Georgia Public Broadcasting.\nThe film features never-before-seen archival footage of German-American artist Steffen Thomas at work and at play. The Steffen Thomas Museum of Art has shared their vast archive with Milk Crate Films’ director\, Jesse Stephen Freeman\, who has been working on the project for four years. The result is a fascinating dive into the life of this talented\, complicated artist. \nSee the home Thomas built stone-by-stone\, the monumental public pieces around the country\, the colorful mosaics and oil paintings\, and the legendary Monument to the Brotherhood of Mankind\, a massive work of art that required visitors to enter into a sunken sanctuary to experience. It was inside this work that Thomas carved his credo\, “This world is too small for less than brotherhood\, too dangerous for less than truth.” \nThe original score for Steffen Thomas: Rock & Chisel is composed by David Kirkland Garner and performed by Phillip Bush (piano) and Claire Bryant (cello). Michael Bruno is the Director of Photography and the film was edited by Will Eccleston for Kinetiscape Films. It’s directed by Jesse Stephen Freeman for Milk Crate Films. \nSee film trailer here. \nSee Georgia Public Broadcasting airing schedule here.

SUMMARY:FILM: Let Us Die
DESCRIPTION:On the eve of the anniversary of the Russian invasion in Ukraine\, join Goethe-Zentrum Atlanta for the exclusive screening of “Let us Die”. \nAs a young man in the late 1980s\, Tim Mallad\, purchased an old\, beaten-up desk in Dallas. Inside\, he found an old British Passport\, black and white photographs\, a letter from Tel Aviv\, international air mail from the 1950s\, and a collection of fragile letters that were written in German at the end of World War II. This finding is the unlikely beginning of a story that ultimately led into the darkness of war crimes in the city of Neustrelitz at the time of Germany’s liberation from the Nazi regime – and that led Frank Pringham\, great grandnephew of Thomas Mann\, into a chapter of his family history previously unknown. \nGeothe-Zentrum welcomes Mr. Frank Pringham to join for the showing of the documentary\, inaugurating the new screening equipment at the new center. \nGeneral Public: $10 per person\nMembers: FREE

SUMMARY:“Je Me Soulève” Movie Screening: Atlanta Francophonie Festival 2023
DESCRIPTION:Join the Atlanta Francophonie Festival for a screening of the movie Je Me Soulève (2022) by Hugo Latulippe. \nThis screening will be in French with English subtitles. \nSYNOPSIS: Twenty young actors are brought together for a creation lab by stage directors Véronique and Gabrielle Côté\, to create a collective work at one of the great national theatres. Over a full year\, they scour contemporary Québécois poetry to tap into the spirit of the times.

And when one of theirs is elected to the Quebec’s National Assembly\, poetry literally becomes an integral part of the country’s political landscape. \nClick here to watch the trailer (in French). \nDirected by: Hugo Latulippe \nThis event is made possible by the Quebec Government Office in Atlanta
