ACT At Home: Virtual Screenings and Conversations

In this unprecedented time, ACT At Home will keep conversations around human rights and social justice going through a series of virtual events. Just like any ACT event, these programs will include the opportunity to connect – with one another or with filmmakers, activists, or other experts. We hope you join us virtually and we are looking forward to reconvening and celebrating as a community once again.
