Better Together Film Festival

The American story has always been written by everyday people stepping up to strengthen their communities and our country. It is through story that we understand ourselves, others, and the world in which we live. Stories have the power to transform the way we see, empathize, interact and disagree with one another. They have the power to bring us together but also pull us apart. They have the power to inspire and despair. After a year of especially toxic, polarizing narratives in our media, the frayed social fabric of our nation can feel beyond repair. Now is a time for Americans to hear, see, and experience the stories of people coming together across their differences to solve problems together in their neighborhoods and in their communities. Now is a time to celebrate people choosing curiosity over contempt, dialogue over demonization, and empathy over apathy. We can feel inspired by these stories, and empowered to take actions that build feelings of unity and belonging in their communities. Join a screening. Connect with your neighbors.
