The East Shore Meaningful Movies Bellevue team invites you to participate in our monthly screenings!
We show social justice documentaries on the fourth Tuesday of the month, starting at 7:00 p.m.
We started off our fall screenings with Single Use Planet, This film looks at a number of economic and political realities that underscore the increase in single-use plastics pollution. In October, we screened Fish War, a 2024 documentary about a series of civil disobedience protests by Coast Salish tribes during the 1960s and 1970s. In November, we will show Rid-All Green Partnership about the transformation of an illegal dumping ground into an urban farm promoting community pride and wellness. These films address many of our UU values as they highlight the inherent dignity of everyone and inspire us to act on many social justice issues in our region.
Another way to participate in Meaningful Movies Bellevue is to join the team. We’re a mighty group of people who have a lot of fun together as we select films and plan every monthly event. Each person on the team handles a specific task, and every summer we have a potluck at which we select films and plan for the next year. If you’re interested in joining the team or would like more information about Meaningful Movies Bellevue, please contact Lynn Roesch – [email protected] – and she’ll be in touch with you. Hope to see you at the movies!
