SUMMARY:"My Omaha" film and discussion - The Ross
DESCRIPTION:“My Omaha” will screen at the Mary Riepma Ross Media Arts Center from December 12-21\, with the 1:30 pm screening on Dec. 21 including a post-screening Q&A with filmmaker Nick Beaulieu and community activist Leo Louis II. \nSet against the backdrop of Omaha’s deep divides and burgeoning racial justice movement\, My Omaha tells the story of filmmaker Nick Beaulieu’s personal journey to document the activism of his hometown and reconcile with his terminally ill father Randy\, a staunch pro-Trump supporter. Guided by the wisdom of community activist Leo Louis II\, Nick navigates the complexities of family conflict\, political and racial discord\, and the difficult search for common ground. \nTickets for the Q&A screening are $10 (discounts available for seniors\, military\, students\, Ross members and children) and may be purchased in advance on The Ross website: https://theross.org/events/my-omaha-qa/. \nFor more information about the film\, visit: https://www.myomahafilm.com/ \nNICK BEAULIEU is a documentary film director and producer based in New York City.
