In November, the Compassion Film Festival in Carbondale, Colorado will screen ACT SOCIAL and host events around improvisation for festival attendees.
From the festival:
“We believe that the world is filled with individuals and communities practicing skillful actions that benefit others in kind and loving ways. As we turn our attention to the love and compassion that surround us, we can become inspired to nurture these qualities within ourselves.
In a world where media is highlighting many challenges, we believe that a path to healthy and helpful actions starts with clearly highlighting examples of compassion in action. Everything we do matters, and if we are to make positive changes in the world, we will need to learn about the power of compassion as a force that each of us can cultivate and draw upon as fuel for skillful actions.
Compassion Film Festival expands on the films with other events and workshops to offer practices and tools for attendees to engage in life in more compassionate ways. Our 2020 festival was held online due to the pandemic. Here are some highlights from Compassion Film Festival® 2020:
– 5 screenings of compassionate films
– 4 Online workshops
– 2 Filmmaker Q&A sessions
– Attendees from 3 continents, 21 states, and 4 Canadian provinces
