A Mission Statement for Holding Cinematic Conversations

Notes to Myself on How to Connect with All You Out There


Look around you.
Listen. Ask.
Share. Engage.
Immerse yourself.
Imagine.
Enter spaces, don't stay outside.
Walk, walk, walk.
Turn corners unexpectedly.
Take a chance.

Keep moving forward —
focused, tender, courageous,
in curiosity and kinship — onwards we go!

Life and cinema.
Cinema and life.
Time and experience each leave their mark.
Consider the past, consider the present, consider the future.

As a dear friend once wrote:
“Let's eat and drink and love cinema.”

So friends, let's wander and wonder!
