SUMMARY:SAAACAM April Film Club “The Blind Stigma: Mental Health within the Black Community”
DESCRIPTION:  \n  \n \n“The Blind Stigma” is an award-winning film that made Canadian history by being the first documentary produced in Canada that discusses mental health within the Black community. It chronicles and testifies the stories of five individuals on their trials and triumphs with mental health. Each story is told bravely and effectively with additional context provided by mental health professionals\, religious leaders\, caregivers\, and your everyday citizen. Within the Black community\, mental health is deemed as a ‘Swept Under The Rug’ stigma that has been creating false illusions and assumptions for a long time. \nThat stigma is the core component of the Black community’s response to mental illness\, and therefore those who suffer from mental illness are less likely to seek treatment. As a result very few studies have been done on the impact of mental illness in the Black community. This film powerfully removes the veil of shame that clouds the topic of mental illness in the Black community\, challenges the misconception\, and gives a voice to those living with mental illness. \nDirectors: Stacy-Ann Buchanan\, 2023\, NR\, 60 mins \nImmediately following the film\, join us for the lively panel discussion with our panelists who will provide insight as well as mental health resources available to the San Antonio community. \nADMISSION IS FREE\, BUT PRE-REGISTRATION IS REQUIRED!\nThe doors to The Little Carver open at 5:30pm\, and the film begins at 6pm. \nTo register\, click here.

SUMMARY:Nine Parts - Filming screening & conversation with Heather Raffo
DESCRIPTION:  \n  \n\n\nJoin Carver Community Cultural Center and KLRN for a film screening and community conversation with Heather Raffo\n\n\n\nNine Parts – Film Screening & Conversation with Heather Raffo \nJoin Carver Community Cultural Center and KLRN for an an evening of cinematic exploration and engaging discussion with acclaimed playwright and actor\, Heather Raffo. The evening will feature a screening of “Nine Parts\,” – a new film adaptation of the internationally acclaimed one-woman play\, Nine Parts of Desire. \nStay for tea and a community talkback with Heather Raffo immediately following the screening. \nAbout Nine Parts – The Film \nOne woman. Nine stories. \nTorn by her father’s death and a divided nation\, an Iraqi American woman attempts to grieve at the site of the oldest Iraqi Church in North America. What starts in isolation becomes communal as Iraqi women—ordinary and extraordinary—come to and through her with her personal stories of love and resilience. \nBased on the internationally-acclaimed solo show\, Nine Parts revisits a groundbreaking play for the screen and for our current times. Newly set in Michigan at the height of the pandemic\, Nine Parts is a first-of-its-kind bridge between the Midwest and the Middle East\, offering audiences a unique window into the Iraqi female experience. Directed by Mike Mosallam\, produced by Nilou Safinya\, and airing nationally on PBS. \nWatch the PBS Newshour feature on the film here. \nHistory \nNearly 20 years ago Heather Raffo’s play\, Nine Parts of Desire\, premiered to widespread acclaim in London and Off Broadway\, later becoming a global theatrical phenomenon. Championed by The New Yorker as “an example of how art can remake the world”\, it became the first theatrical commercial success nationally and internationally by an Arab American playwright. It initially premiered in the U.K. in 2003\, where critics hailed it as one of the five best plays in London’s Off West End theater season. Later\, it ran Off Broadway for nine sold out months and was a critic’s pick (of The New York Times\, Time Out\, and Village Voice) for over 24 weeks in a row. Since 2005\, Nine Parts of Desire has been produced in nearly every theater market in the U.S. and was one of the top five most produced plays of the 2007–2008 American Theater season with international productions in over a dozen countries\, some being performed to this day. Now studied in universities across the nation\, Nine Parts of Desire helped forge a whole new genre of Arab American theater and continues to impact new generations globally\, offering audiences not only a deeper understanding of their relationship to the Middle East but to each other. \n\nTo register\, click here.

But to succeed on his quest\, Percy will have to do more than catch the thief. He must travel to the Underworld and back; solve the riddle of the Oracle\, which warns him of betrayal by a friend; and come to terms with the father who abandoned him. Adapted from the best-selling book The Lightning Thief by Rick Riordan and featuring a thrilling original rock score. \n$32 – VIP Seating – priority seating & early theatre access \nClick here to purchase tickets – 10/25 \nClick here to purchase tickets -10/26 –  1pm \nClick here to purchase tickets -10/26 –  5pm
