Next week! Meaningful Movies of Tacoma is back with another in person event! On February 15th, at Franke Toby Jones in Tacoma at 2pm, join them as they have a screening and discussion on the film "The Death of My Two Fathers." More information located below. Don't miss out on this powerful film!THE DEATH OF MY TWO FATHERS is a courageous exploration of identity, fatherhood, life, and death. The film unpacks the meaning of family, explores race, and how we must all face where we come from for the sake of those who come after us.When William Guy was facing a terminal illness in his early 50s, he decided to dictate his life story to tape as a legacy for his children to know him better. It’s taken 20 years for his son Sol to be able to press play and revisit his father’s journey as a Black man from Kansas City, Missouri, to Vancouver Island. Sol retraces his own roots between Canada and the US, while reconnecting with his four distant siblings and extended family members. Framed as a heartfelt letter to his teenage children, Sol composes a multi-generational contemplation on race, death, love and the importance of family. Coming to terms with his own history, he recognizes that “what we don’t heal, what we don’t confront, we pass on.”GUEST SPEAKERS: TBDPlease join Tacoma Meaningful Movies & Franke Tobey Jones Senior University for this in-person screening of The Death of My Two Fathers.To register for the free film screening and community discussion, click here: FTJ_DOMTF.eventbrite.comSpecial Guests: TBDSponsors: Franke Tobey JonesFacebook Page: www.deathofmytwofathers.com/To learn more about this event: meaningfulmovies.org/events/the-death-of-my-two-fathers-2/To check out other events, go to: MeaningfulMovies.org ...
