SUMMARY:World Premiere of Community Storytellers Shorts at Gene Siskel Film Center
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an evening that brings the soul of Chicago’s neighborhoods to the big screen! Experience the powerful stories of our community through the lens of three talented Chicago residents from the 2023-24 Community Storytellers program: \nAlexie Young\nTake 290 (15:53; North Lawndale\, Westside)\nDirected by Sanicole\nWritten by George Ellzey Jr.\nA defeated artist from the Westside of Chicago finds inspiration in the common ground she discovers through a spontaneous interaction with an art curator from the Southside. \nLaura Sáenz\nArtista (11:23; Little Village)\nDirected by Juan Linares\nWritten by Christian Mejia\nAn immigrant child uncovers a world of magic and possibility through the arts at their school. \nBrian Herrera\nAsk A Punk (15:28; Little Village)\nDirected by Kevin Contento\nWritten by Teri Carson\nA non-binary queer teen cultivates community\, individuality\, and resilience through the subculture of the DIY punk scene in Little Village. \nFrom the spirited journey of an artist finding connection in the city\, to the magical exploration of a young immigrant’s discovery of art\, and the vibrant resilience within the DIY punk scene\, these shorts illuminate the unique experiences and voices that shape our communities.\nThis event not only showcases these compelling narratives but also fosters a sense of belonging and community connection.
