Saint Mary's College Presents LUNAFEST Film Festival
LUNAFEST™, the fundraising film festival dedicated to promoting awareness about women's issues, highlighting women filmmakers, and bringing women together in their communities, will be brought to SMC on Thursday, January 17th, 2013. This unique film festival highlights women as leaders in society, illustrated through nine short films by women filmmakers. The films range from animation to fictional drama, and cover topics such as women's health, motherhood, body image, sexuality, cultural diversity, and breaking barriers. Fifteen percent of the proceeds from LUNAFEST™ will go to The Breast Cancer Fund and the rest will go to a charity or non profit of the WRC's choice. Thus far, LUNAFEST™, which is created and funded by LUNA®, The Whole Nutrition Bar for Women®, raised over $200,000 for Breast Cancer Fund and over $470,000 for other women's non-profit organizations.
